Rivendell Chick
Songster
One chick from my flock that turns six weeks tomorrow may be in trouble. Stools increasingly watery, almost completely liquid this morning. Still trying to eat and drink so far, slightly lethargic.
The chicks were ordered from Hoovers via Tractor Supply, and since I did not know a vaccination status, opted for a medicated purina chick feed. Several chicks have runny stools but everyone active and healthy looking.
She was one of the largest chicks early on, very social, but has fallen behind - may be breed specific though as I don't know what she is yet and she is the only one that looks like this.I did take them into my organic garden last week for an hour or so and they enjoyed clover, etc. She was very stressed though, only one that wasn't excited almost immediately. She was almost catatonic for some time, just standing after a period of heavy panting.
Any advice welcome, first time chicken raiser here, but many years with other animals - you get a sense when someone may be "off".
Also if you have thoughts on what breed she may be - this group was from Hoovers - rare assortment. I'd say salmon faverolle but she doesn't have the xtra toe, but does have feathered legs and feet. Wheaten marans?
