I NEED HELP QUICK!

[zeiset777]

Well it's to late. This morning I woke up went down and the chick was laying on its side. It looked like it was breathing, so I picked it up and it's head just hung down. I began to feed it water and it swallowed it. I left go of it's head for a few seconds to fill the syringe up and it plopped it's head down again. When I lifted it's head and opened it's beak, I realized it didn't open it's eyes. Normally when I opened the mouth it's eyes light up.

I looked at it's chest and back and saw no more signs of breathing. I guess it's better off now anyway, cause I'm sure it wasn't comfortable to have me come down every few hours to shove water down it's throat.

30 Ml per 6 to 8 hours! Is that for a 3 week old bird or a full grown bird.

Is it still alive? You can try giving it "Kaytee exact" hand feeding formula for baby birds. You should be able to find it at your local pet shop. I had excellent results using it on an almost dead bird.

So sorry. I didn't read your last post.

Yeah, I live a good 45 mins to the closest place that sells Kaytee baby bird formula. I got it some last night, but it was probably to late. I guess on the bright side I have 18 ounces of kaytee powder and enough Corid to mix up 300 gallons of drinking water incase I get more chicks and find out they have cocci.

The other three are still alive and kicking. They are drinking and eating on their own and are about twice the size of the little guy that passed today. I am mixing the corid in their drinking water, cause I believe they too have the cocci, by the looks of a little pile of poop I saw in their side of the pen.
