We bought three three week old Ancona girls yesterday from a local breeder. We noticed one of the girls "Lucy" had one eye shut. We asked about it and he said she probably just had a lazy eye. Well today she had both eyes shut and has been listless and can't find her food or water. Come to find out he had a water leak in her coop and she got ammonia poisoning. I've been giving her water with a little sugar, vitamins and probiotics by syringe all day and have tried unsuccessfully to get her to eat. Is there anything else I can do for her? I haven't been able to find a whole lot of information on how to nurse a chick back to health that has had ammonia poisoning. Is it even possible? Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Lisa
