5 week old chick fall/squash

[spish]

my chicks are kept in an extra large guineapig cage so they cant flap about everywhere until they are big enough to go out.
my very naughty minipig has just managed to pull the cage off the table it sits on under the heat lamp and chicks flew everywhere.

all seemed fine at first but a marans hen is now in a corner, standing, eyes closed feathers ruffeled. no intrest in food or water.
im guessing its bad? anything i can do to help her or is it a case of wait and see?

i dont know if she got hit by anything in the cage as it fell (food trough/water holder?) but seemed fine at first?

theres a spot of blood on her foot, i think she scraped it but cant see any obvious injuries?

nobody?

I'm not expert at all--newbie here...but from what I've read, the chicks can get stressed out pretty easily. I'd keep a close eye on her to see if she gets back to her baseline activity. If you are concerned about her eating & drinking, you can dip her beak in the food/water & see if this helps. If it were me, I would pick her up & love on her a lot.

Sounds like a case of wait and see.


Maybe offer some scrambled or hardboiled eggs?


Hope she will be a-ok.
