Harvey the Great is Dying. . .

Pics
So sorry to hear he's not getting any better. It's really sad to make him suffer till he dies on his own. I really hope your husband will come around and realize how unfair that is to Harvey. :hugs:hugs
 
Miracle! This morning when I went to let the chickens out of the run Harvey was wide awake! He walked out to the creek and started to drink. He was wide awake for the first time in 5 days! I had a feeling he was coming back to normal and threw down a few dried meal worms and HE ATE! MIRACLE! I got a pan and filled it with 20% chick starter and put it in run #2. He immediately followed me and started to eat! I'm so happy for our boy! Yesterday He acted dead and today he's alive again. Thanks to all who prayed and cared in your own special ways. I'll continue to give him antibiotics for another 3 days and try to get some scrambled egg into him. I know it's not over, but I couldn't wait to tell you all the GREAT NEWS!

Are you (still?) giving him water?
I know, we’re not there with you, but i keep hoping he will get better..:hugs
Thank you for all your prayers and well wishes. Harvey is better today and actually started eating. He has been drinking most days. I'm excited to see him awake and moving and eating! :wee

YAY HARVEY!! I'm glad you stuck with it girlie! Peekaboo is back with the flock and coming along nicely, but it took days and days of almost crying myself to sleep with worry. Keep babying him for the next several days.
 
Greetings Peppercorngal,

What wonderful news! So glad to hear that, Henry the Great, is on the mend!

The antibiotics are just kicking in. Glad you are continuing the antibiotics. You should continue the course for a full 10 days. He most likely had a severe internal infection.

Also, follow up with a 3 day course of probiotics, to restore his gut flora.

You are doing a good job of caring for him!:yesss:

God Bless :)
