If he's really tired then maybe he would benifit from homemade natural electrolytes made from a; tsp of sea salt - some potassium sorbate (found in salt substatute like some made from veggies0 check -contains potassium sorbate, mixed with 2 cups water and 1/2 cup grandulated sugar. But that's of the top of my head. :) googleling " how to make homemade electrolytes for chickens" would probably be best

! May he be well :)

He's been better eating drinking n having a good time lol. But he still keeps that eye closed sometimes so I been treating for eye worm.
