HELP. What's Wrong With My Chicken

[silkiemama002]

A little update! I took him to the vet today and she did a fecal float, it was roundworms! No coccidia… thank god but so crazy it can present so similarly. Glad they have had a dose of cocciprol anyway and that he will hopefully be all good after his meds

Yes you can use a syringe or dropper, or even a spoon held to the side of his beak to give the liquid. Try a little chicken feed, just a spoonful and add treated water to it, and see if he likes it. Soft cooked egg is also good. I would put him back with the others, if possible, for company. Of course, don’t let them pick on him.

He turned all of those things down yesterday! But he has had a lot more today and definitely has a bit more of an appetite.

Vet said keep him seperate for one more day so we can monitor poops and food, and then he can go back to them.

He’s actually always been the bully so I am hoping they won’t pick on him much, but it might not be too bad if he’s knocked down a peg or two
