I have a chick that was very active yesterday, but today she is so weak, we gave her water but she did not drink any. Help please!
 
It’s a chicken not a chick
Hi there, hope you are enjoying BYC! :frow

Your first post did say chick.. please tell us the age? Also when was the last egg she laid and what is her other behavior. Is she staying in a nest box, on roost, foraging with other flock members.. What breed?

Possibilities.. broody, egg bound, vent gleet, vent prolapse, broken or soft egg inside vent... Are you able to get a photo of your concern?

How is her crop.. full, empty, squishy, hard, etc?

What is her normal feed including treats and supplements? Are you able to take a fecal float to the vet in the morning to check for parasite load? How do her dropping look.. is she passing any??

Might you add your general location to your profile when you get a chance as it may help answer things at a glance like where are you and how's your current weather pattern or what resources might be available to you that we know of...

All questions are looking for clues to help narrow down possibilities and work within YOUR means to find solutions if possible. Meaning there is no wrong answer and I'm here to support you and your flock!

Hope she improves and recovers quickly! :fl
