Thank you so much for responding . I’m making some eggs for her Rte now. I will continue trying to keep her hydrated.. Her poop looks normal/solid but with a little more white than normal.
1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.) Silkie, 5months old, much lighter than others.

Incase somebody else is reading this post with Bumblefoot and removed the plug but wants to avoid a vet bill you can order antibiotics online. Just search for the antibiotic but for other birds like pigeons. If someone needs help I can check for the link to the site I’ve used before.
