I need some advice. Thankfully we have raised our flock of 3 barred rocks and two golden seabrights from 3 day old chicks fine, until about four weeks ago.
The little runt Seabright had been acting broody. Stopped laying, would not come out from under the coop or from in the coop. Her comb looked strange, not dark but bumpy. Her poo is normal. The huge problem now is her feet, they are curled up and she can't stand up. I had segregated her a couple of weeks ago and she bounced back, so I put her back with the rest. then last week I noticed that she wasn't coming out at all. Did not see her eat or drink. I have her in the barn in the dog crate with hay, water and food but she won't move. I tried yogurt to no avail, water with apple cider vinegar in a dropper, nothing. She just rolls her eyes and shakes her head. I'm so sad - don't know what to do. her legs are curved up under her and she is resting on her side. No gasping, coughing or hacking. I know I asked that they be vaccinated when I bought them so would she still get Mareks?
HELP!!!!
