Baby chick..treat or cull?

[Matilda Belle]

its about 5 days old. Very weird body shape. Has cried nonstop and screamed since day 1. Cries really bad trying to poop. I’ve given vitamins and treated with preparation H. Innards seems to be coming out vent perhaps due to straining while pooping. Poop appears runny. The other 7 chicks are normal.

Did you try taking the chick to a vet who will see chickens? Here is a directory - http://www.poultrydvm.com/poultry-vets.php; This is what I would do.

Yeah.....I don't have money for vets for every chicken problem I have. That's why I come here.

As much as I hate to say it it doesn't look like it'll live for very long. I would suggest culling it especially if its in that much pain. I hope it doesn't come to that but sometimes that happens and it sucks. Good luck

I think the best thing you can do you the poor chick is cull it.
