Help! Dying Chick

[Ansleigh]

One of my 10 week old chicks is ill.. I brought her in last night because it was going to be windy and cold and this morning I noticed she was lethargic, I picked her up and I could feel her chest bones.. She was perfectly fine last night and was eating and drinking this morning as well.. What could cause this and what can I do to treat it? TIA

I would give her some nutri-drench and some scrambled eggs to see if she just needs an energy boost.
I am so sorry about your sick baby. Keep us posted on her progress!

I suggest dosing Corrid. I had rabbits suffer similar symptom and they died quickly. It might Coccioscidios.

I tried giving her some Oatmeal with B12 to boost her but she wouldn’t eat anything, she has drunk some water though.. I don’t have any Chicken Nutri-Drench but I do have Goat Nutri-Drench, would that work as well?

I wouldn’t. Just scramble some eggs with the yolks and maybe some yogurt.

The picture I posted below - what part of the body is that showing - what are you trying to show us? I circled a place in red - what is that?
Do you have some whole body photo so we can see what she looks like?
What are you feeding, including treats?

I would leave off oatmeal completely. Try to get some fluids into her. Do you have any poultry vitamins or electrolytes? You can give room temperature Gatorade or sugar water to give her a little boost. Don't worry about food right now, get her hydrated.
The white urates dripping from the vent - is she able to poop at all? Photos of any poop?
How long have you had her?
