Give him a vitamin/electrolyte water mixture via the syringe (slowly, careful to avoid windpipe). I've had good luck with just slowly dropping the water on the side of the beak rather than forcing the mouth open. A powdered blend that you add to water for chickens should be available at your local feed store (hopefully). If not, you can probably make your own but I don't know the ingredients or amounts. Also post a new thread in the Emergencies/Diseases/Injuries forum ASAP: https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures. You will get more answers there. After you create the thread, search this site for dehydration and you'll probably get more answers. Best of luck!
