She seems fine except 1) she's shaking her head every few minutes or seconds as if to shake something off and 2) she hasn't eaten with any regularity in a week and a half. She's interested in food in theory - she'll peck at kale, for instance, and until she got too weak and tired, she was scratching for bugs - but actual food doesn't seem to appeal to her. I can hold it up in her line of sight and she'll turn toward it, but then not eat.
We're taking her to the vet tomorrow afternoon, if she makes it that long, and I hope they can do something for her (that will be within our price range), but I'm not optimistic. To keep her alive, we've been dosing her every day with a concoction made of water, Nutri-Drench, VetRx, Corid, and another anti-coccidia medicine. (Granted, I've never heard of coccidiosis causing obsessive head-shaking. At this rate she'll die, but she'll be coccidiosis-free.) I would love to try and force food down her throat, too, but I'm worried that that would choke her to death, which wouldn't help.
Does anyone have any ideas?
