Hi guys Im in need of emergency help.

I have two game roosters known as Taiwans.

I keep them both separated with their own hens. Around 4 days ago, there was a corner of the separation that was exposed abit where they both got in contact. They got into a huge head shot fight both poking each other, when I got home they both looked very exhausted With alot of blood. I cleaned them both and they were fine, eating drinking and walking. The next day the black one was limping on one leg while the red one was normal eating and drinking. The black one stopped eating, I have now isolated him, his completely stopped eating for 2 days, the last two days he has started drinking and eating and is now more alert, however he does not stand up at all and just moves his head around. Until yesterday the red one was fine however now his always sleeping not moving and at times he walks he also has smelly mucus coming out his mouth and has stopped eating and drinking . They are both on antibiotics. What are your thoughts guys. Is there anything more I can do?
 
I would look them over for any beak injuries, check the inside of the beaks and throats for any injury/infection. Keep them separated from hens and each other to rest legs and heal. Offer some soft mushy mash—chicken feed mixed with some water, perhaps with a little cooked egg or yogurt, in case there is soreness. A boost of Poultry NutriDrench for a day or two might help.

Thanks for your reply.

One seems to be healing. He is still not walking but eating and drinking by him self. The other one seems to be getting weaker and weaker but can still walk and stand. But not eating at all. When I try feeding him through syringe he seems to be not swallowing at all
 
You can learn to tube feed temporarily if you want to save him, or keep trying to get him to drink. He might have some internal injuries that are making him not eat. How does his crop feel? Have you looked inside his beak for injuries?

Cant really see any injuries in mouth. Crop is empty. His very lethargic at the moment and mouth very smelly. Mucus is not as much as two days ago.
