I HAVE 25 BABY CHICKS ARE ALL DOING WELL EXPECT ONE FOR THE PAST 4 DYAS ALL OF A SUDDEN IT BEEN HAVING TROUBLE STANDING ON THE RIGHT SIDE HE DOES STAND AFTER A FEW MINUTES HE FALLS IT'S ALMOST LIKE HE'S PARALIZED FOR A MONENT AND IDEAS TO WHAT IT IS I FEEL BAD FOR HIM SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS
Can you please change to lower case letters. Thanks... Can you tell if the chick has a problem with the leg or if it just seems weak ?
Separate the chick from the others so that it won't get trampled if it falls and can't get up. It could be a neurological disorder caused by a vitamin deficiency or trauma, a congenital defect or Mareks disease. Get some Poly-vi-sol liquid baby vitamins. Give the chick 1 drop twice a day for 3 days, cut that in half the next 3 days, then in half again the next 3 days. If it is vitamin deficiency the chick should be OK.
