just a suggestion - some vets keep tetracycline for dogs and cats - they might be willing to sell you a pack of the powdered kind. Also I forgot when I stand at the sink with the chick I let it's feet stand on an old washcloth that is draped over the edge of the sink. they seem to drink...

ours were acting that way because they were exposed to some bacteria in the grass and it got in their systems and basically gave them rot gut. watch and see what hte stool looks like - I am guessing little thing is cold because it is dehydrated - it might have diarrea as well. Does it feel...

I totally agree sounds just like what happened to us... am so sorry for you loss - it is so difficult to lose them like that. all our dogs had been just fine with the chickens... until... one day the part-bird dog when rogue while we were away and killed 8 out of 9 chickens. he didn't eat...
