Hey Y'all I could use some help please.

[AmandaChick]

Hi. I have what I think is an American Game Rooster and today he stopped running around and can barely open his eyes. A friend told me to give him sugar water and make sure he eats and drinks. I have a hen in with him and he also said to keep them together still because she might be sick to but she doesn't act like it. Any advise??

Hello and Welcome To BYC! Sorry about your boy. You might want to post about your roo in the Emergencies forum https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures I would separate him from the hen so you can bring him in to watch him and make sure he is in a warm spot... if you have other birds do keep the hen separate from them. Have you given him a thorough all over exam to see if you can find anything wrong? Any injuries or anything? What exactly is he doing?

When you post in the emergencies thread, please give as many details as possible - symptoms, age, how long he has been ill - anything you can think of.
