Coryza, I was wondering......

Going on the 3rd day of shots. Drinking but the eating still concerns me. I made them scrabbled eggs last night and tried to get some down them. But they refused. For being so sick they have a lot of fight in them. LOL. Gasping isn't as bad, but just a little bit.
They don't move around very much.

Here is them now. This is about what they do all day.

I watched the video. Might be mycoplasma synoviae (MS), just a guess though. You can refer to the link I provided in Post #3 to read about MS. You might want to contact your county extension agent or state agriculture department and ask how to go about getting your birds tested.

#rd day and not much progress. Don't know if I should keep the treatment up?? I guess I'll wait for the wormer to come and try that. If that doesn't work not sure what to do with them.

What size needle did you use? Where do you give them the shot?

You can use insulin syringes w/ needle attached OR use 22guage one. Shots are given in the meaty part of the breast on either side of the keel bone.
IF you have a problem hanging on to birdie take an old T-shirt cut a hole where the breast would be exposed, and wrap that around the entire birdie to hold them.. You can hold the legs down with the T-shirt pinned between your legs or get a helper. Its amazing how much fight the little buggers can have.......
