Help!!!!

I found out that hot shot bug spray was sprayed on the windows outside. I'm thinking that is what may have happened. My daughter didn't know. And I can't tell her that she may have killed them .

Oh noo... :( I'm so sorry to hear... eliminate that spray!!!...chickens love bugs and will take care of them for you... :( I can only imagine how you feel...I'm so sorry you have to go through this... :( BIG HUG!!!
P.S.: You could try to explain it to your daughter and that you thought about the bug spray and that your chicken got a very bad tummy ache and is not feeling very well...and that it was toxic for her. Your daughter will only learn from this.
P.P.S.: I hate those bug sprays... :(
 
The poop had become a clear yellow color she is fading fast and I can't afford a vet .

I read about mites in my book ...they suggest Elector PSP...easiest to use and no egg-withdrawal period...(from The Chicken Chick's Guide to Backyard Chickens)...

...I also found this on the web... I don't know if it helps...but it suggests different things...

...hmmm... they suggest you give her antibiotic right away... duramycin or Tylan... I hope she makes the night... Bestest of luck!!! Thank you for caring so much for your chicken! HUG!!!
I have liquid amoxicillin from when my kids were sick .Is that ok
 
Seeking vet care asap is the best option.

Coccidiosis does not always present with bloody poop. The poop posted by the OP looks like it has a lot of mucous to me. Since all the chicks are sick and have similar symptoms, that is where I would start.
So I have amoxicillin liquid .should I try to give it to them
 
I'm just going to say that I'm not sure if kids antibiotics will work. I'll compare the ingredients to tylan real quick, but am afraid I will be no help with dosage
 
Ok after searching it looks like active ingredients are just diffetent antibiotics, inactive is coloring basically. I cant tell you to use it for fear it might hurt them. If they were mine tho, and that sick, i would use whatever is handy until i could make it to the feed store tomorrow

That's what I am thinking. I'm not sure of dosage either. I brought the sick one back out to the flock and the flock is up and eating and drinking now .She is just laying in the corner but when I take her away the flock gets super depressed and won't even move or anything . I live in a small town and the feed stores closed early today .I couldn't find charcol but is there anything else I could give the sick one to make her puke? None of the other birds have bad poop. So I'm thinking she got into something .

Other posts here on Backyard Chickens, suggest vitamin K when poison occurs...

...if she already had poison, should she take antibiotics though?
How is she doing? Do you have grapes...that could hydrate her and is a treat...my chickens LOVE grapes... without seeds...maybe strawberries...something she really likes?
