7 week old BANTAM COCHIN shaking and off balance ??

[CountryCooper]

5 days ago my bantam cochin started shaking and seems off balance .... Eating drinking , running around but when she stops moving she is shaking .... Like trembling ?? Is this normal for bantam Cochins ?? She is my first ??

i kknow that it is normal for bantam breeds to shake because they are small kinda like chihuahuas but to go off balance hmm. you may want to seperate her from the rest of the flockn and watch her sometimes if there is a weak bird they will bully it until it dies and maybe try electrolites that might help. goodluck and hope this helps.

I didn't know that! I don't have bantams, but that's interesting.

ya i learned that from being on here! i have three bantams a 4 yr old and two 2month old chicks together and the 4 yr old rooster shakes a lot i guess its just their breed.

Okay Thank you!! I was wondering if it was just her personality or breed.... She seems totally fine otherwise !! Glad to hear yours has this too !!

Thank YOU !!!

I have checked for everything else so I guess Time will tell. She is not getting any worse just the same thing. Little bit wobbly on her feet... she is not as agile as everyone else.
