Yesterday when I sent down in the basement to feed, water and clean the crate of my 11 four week old chicks, one of them was just laying on the bottom of the crate with everyone else walking all over her. I removed her from the crate and brought her upstairs and placed her in a box with a heat lamp. Yesterday I fed her every two hours, first it was just water with electrolytes and probiotics, then started with wet cat food mixed with the medicated water. Today she is eating the food from a lid, however, she still is not standing - AT ALL. I hold her to eat and as soon as she is done, I place her the box and she just falls over. I've been scouring the internet to find any possible solutions to making her better and now I am worried about Maerk's. She did get a vaccine before I got her for the disease. I don't want her to suffer and I don't want the rest of the flock to get sick. Does anyone have ANY suggestions on what possibly may be the problem or solution??
