Depends on how able you are to provide emergency care. You should:

• Weigh all of you birds on a digital kithen scale (see my avatar).
• Log all of their weights.
• Dust them for mites/lice with poultry dust, NOT DE.
• Is they are not molting, worm them with Safeguard for Goats (fenbendazole 10%) 50mg/kg by mouth and repeat in 10 days.
• Put in warm place with access to food and water.
• If not eating/drinking or losing weight, tube feed.
