Our 3 week old Buff Oprington looked like she was struggling to breath yesterday and then it got worse. Took her to the vet who said she had very little air moving in her lungs and was gasping. She said she probably aspirated some food. We were talking about putting her down because I didn't want her to suffocate. Just then - she "coughs" and a little piece of feed flies out . . . the vet gives another listen and says . . . she has more movement . . . we decided that we wanted to give her a chance if she could recover . . . still alive today . . . going back to the vet for an antibiotic to make sure she doesn't get pnuemonia. My question is . . . has anyone had a chick fully recover after something like this?
