HELP!

[Jaimes09]

I have a hen. I think she’s a 5k sweater gamefowl hen and about 5-6 months old. I found her like this 2 days ago. Got told i should give her baking soda in water and it went away at night. Woke up fine on day 2 but in the afternoon that same day i found her with it again and didn’t go away. Today she woke up fine. But samething happened again... After a few hours i saw her having same issue.
The first day i saw it she seemed like she was weak and with no intentions of running or eating but day 2 she was fine with no signs of pain but had that weird neck. Today when i saw her she was kinda weak again like the first time but later in the day she was back to normal without that weird neck.
She has still been eating and drinking…maybe not as much but not to were i am worried of her starving.
Any ideas of what it could be and how i could treat it?

Strange. Can you get some poultry vitamins to put in the water?

What do you recommend? I’ve never bought any

I buy Rooster Booster (vitamins, electrolyte and probiotics) on Amazon or Chewy.com. Locally you might be able to find save-a-chick at the feed store.

She’s back to not doing much again

She’s been doing well for these last 2 days fortunately. But i let her loose today and she seems i energetic. And when i kinda push her with my hand she stumbles. I bought the rooster booster so hoping i can give it to her tomorrow morning. Any tips on how i should feed it to her? You think it’ll help if i get some i na syringe and shoot it in her throat? Or to strong?

No just put some in the fresh water each day for at least a couple weeks.
If you try shooting water down her throat she could aspirate and die.

I don't know sorry.

@casportpony may have a visual on a throat picture to show you the correct way to give liquids by syringe.
I would just put it into the water, make sure you follow the directions on dosage. 1/3 teaspoon in a gallon of water.
