Received 5 baby chicks a couple weeks ago from local farm supply. All except the Jersey giant baby have been fine. I only noticed she started doing this today. It’s a seizure at least every minute or so. So far 10+ times within a half hour.
I’ve put nutridrench and vetrx in her water and separated her but she was stressed even more so I tried putting them back together. She is constantly scratching herself before the seizures and nodding off.
She does not seem to be eating or wanting to drink on her own. Anything else I can try? We haven’t had to euthanize yet so if it comes to that, any advice in that department especially for a baby is extremely appreciated.
could this be caused by a red wasp sting? I noticed one nearby, but not sure if it had just stung her and nobody else or not at all. They’re indoors next to a window in a brooder bin with straw bedding at the moment, still on chick feed with a heat lamp on one side of the bin.
