Hello all!
Two days ago I found a chicken who appears to be in very bad shape and incredibly weak/skinny. It can barely stay up; it is drinking well, eating "some" chick starter (18% non medicated), but I want to know if there is anything I could do to speed up any possible improvement that could take place? At times, I feel like it may improve but then a couple hours later it seems that we take a couple steps back. I have never owned a chicken, much less been informed on proper care for it. I have space where the chicken can live, say it makes a full recovery. It looks to be full grow, but rather young. Any possible tips would be greatly appreciated.
