We have a Black Cuckoo Maran that is about twenty weeks old. Recently, she began walking as if she were uncertain of his next step, kind of like a drunk. She also has labored breathing with her mouth open and heavy breaths.
I thought maybe she was egg bound but she wasn’t. Her poop is solid but greenish. She will eat and drink nicely when I put her in front of the food and water but, otherwise, she just sits in one spot and doesn’t move. Her legs can’t support her it seems but are not paralyzed. Vent is clean. Her eyes don’t look any different such as the grey color with Mareks.
Could it be worms? Newcastle?
We had her flock mate go through a similar but not exact set of symptoms a few weeks ago and she died. I have Pedialyte in her water and also Corid.
I’m thinking about taking her to the emergency vet as I am concerned that something is working it’s way through the rest of the flock. I’m fairly certain she is dying.
Any ideas on what it could be and what I should do? Thanks
