I have an 8 week old Tolbunt Polish that I just noticed today has droopy wings and is acting stand off-ish at the feeder. I’m working on setting her up in an isolation pen but any ideas what’s going on and what I need to do?
 
At 8 weeks of age, my first thought with droopy wings and huddled in the distance is coccidiosis. You may consider a round of Corid.

Generally you treat the whole flock if coccidiosis is suspected. You should also clean and safely toss out litter (where the birds can't access it) as the oocysts (eggs) are in the feces and soil.
