Is my silkie dying young? Help me! What do I do?

[ShelbyCoral]

I gave her breakfast this morning and i just gave her low calorie fruit punch gatorade. She loves this stuff! She wont eat without me holding her up. But she loves, loves, loves the syringe! She chases it with her head. She is able to stand now. She has pooped 7 times today! Poop is normal hard, white, green, dark green or black.

That's great! I hope that she continues to improve for you!

 

[ShelbyCoral]

But we do believe she is nearsighted... She cant see food until it gets close to her.

That is just a normal silkie thing because of all of the feathers on their head it covers there eyes

 

[ShelbyCoral]

Anything else I can do for her? Her wing is swollen... she is walking and eatting by herself now but her right should is higher than the other and she cannot use it. When she falls she seems to be in pain, and if I have her legs hanging down she starts to kick and it hurts her. She seems to be in so much pain right now!

 

[ShelbyCoral]

Is it a broken wing and dislocation?
maybe my marans rooster tried to mount her?
I just dont know.

 

[ShelbyCoral]

the only improvement is her walking and eating

 

[AmazingChickens]

If she doesn't improve soon I recommend taking her to the vet, but other than that do a little research to see of you can help her, but you should seperate her from your other chickens, they might be harming her because she is sick

In mareks, do they feel pain?

 

[ShelbyCoral]

she is in so much pain.... wont let me touch her leg and wing...
