HELP my chicken is sick! What should I do!

[Kiki]

Okay thanks! I'll try giving her some cooked scrambled eggs. I don't know where to get the Vitamin E though..

Are you feeding her uncooked rice?

The best thing to feed her right now is a crumbled or pelleted chick feed.

When was the last (most recent) time you brought ANY new bird home?

Sorry. Not my area of expertise at all, but I would think the human gel capsules in the vitamin aisle would work. Search the site if no one else replies.

Yes that would work but if this bird doesn't get nutrition in it soon it will die.
If she won't eat on her own you could tube feed her.

If you can’t find stuff with vitamin E in it, try finding some sunflower seeds peanuts a lot of nuts have a high source of vitamin E. I am no expert but my mom has always been like make sure to have plenty of vitamin E!!!

I'm reading through your old threads.
Actually just skimming them.

Did you ever treat your flock with Corid?

If you have time this talks about vitamin E deficiency- https://www.merckvetmanual.com/poul...ement-poultry/vitamin-deficiencies-in-poultry

Like @Kiki said but also the Corid might be the whole problem. I have lost many birds to coccidiosis. It is nothing new to me. Try to get the medicine ASAP. Corid has been my lifesaver. I treat once a month. It is a good thing to keep up with.

I fed her a bit of uncooked rice yesterday. A few minutes ago I tried feeding her scrambled eggs but she didn't eat it
About 2 weeks ago, I brought home a New Hampshire chicken.

Please don't ever feed your birds uncooked rice again.

The new bird...is it acting sickly too?
