Injured chick

Poop is runny but no blood.i can get corid.
Go ahead and treat with Corid. If coccidiosis is the problem, you should see a difference n a day o two. If that's not the problem, the Corid won't hurt her. It's a benign treatment.
To get her drinking, lay some water/electrolytes along her beak with an eyedropper. She'll swallow reflexively. If you're worried about eating, give her some sugar water. That should hold her until the Corid kicks in and she feels more like eating.
 
Coccidiosis does not always cause blood innstools. i would treat her because of symptoms. It is safe for the others as well.
So I've been giving her corid for a day, and a little drop to the rest of the flock. She looks the same--sleeping all day, unless I force her to drink. She drinks a bit, kind of moves her head rapidly side to side for a sec (I don't know what this is even after much googling), then has diarrhea, then goes back to sleep. It's been 6 days. This is so strange. Sometimes I feel like I should mercy cull her, sometimes I think she's just going to die (she hasn't eaten for 6 days!) I feel so bad for her. I am hoping the corid gives us a miracle. The rest of the flock is completely perky.
