Guinea Fowl

[GuineaLady93]

This morning I went out side and I found my 4 month old keet just sitting on the ground with her eyes closed and not wanting to move. When I picked her up she puked on me. I used a dropper and put some save-a-chick in her (electrolytes). What should I do?!?!?

Went and checked on her and she looks the same and she had puked again.

Is her crop impacted?

That`s a tough one, Ashley. She musta ate something really bad. Mollasses is a natural laxative for fowl. I think I would mix up a little in some water to look like weak tea and dip her beak in it 4-5 times to get some in her. Whatever doesn`t come out when she pukes has to go through and this will help. Hope she makes it..........Pop

Yes, it feels like it is full of liquid. When I held her and felt it and rubbed it she puked again. What does this mean? Should I rubbed it and try to get it all out??

She isn't doing good. Looks like shes about to die. She is having trouble breathing and she is shaking.

She Died. She was my only Bronze.
