Lucy is about a year and a half old. She is a silkie. About 4 days ago she didn't want treats when I gave them their morning worms. That was odd.
That night when I checked on them before bed, everyone was on the roost but Lucy. So I took her in the house and put her in the cage we can keep inside. I wanted to watch her. She eats good. She drinks good. Her poop looks normal.
What I have noticed is that when she walks she stumbles sideways and either catches herself with her wing or she just drops down to a sitting position instead of bothering to walk.
When you try to pick her up she squawks.
We have been giving her Duramycin at the recommendation of a friend. She isn't getting any better, but isn't getting any worse.
Help! We don't want to lose our Lucy, but don't know what to do to make her better.
Thanks!
