My 8week old chicken is very sick.

[lisahy]

She is very lethargic. But she eats and drinks when the food and water are near by.
She seems dead in the photo but she is still peeping and alive.

I have separated her from other chickens and brought her in the house from three days ago. It’s been chilly (45-35)
I have been adding corid powder and save-a-chick in her water.

She doesn’t seem to get better.
What else can I do ?

Thanks in advance.

Does she have a heat source? Keep her warm and help her eat and drink for starters. Do you have any more info on how she is acting?

Thanks for the advice.
She is just sitting or laying down awkwardly. She doesnt walk. She only gets up to poop. She is in our livingroom and its about 80-75 degree.

Feel her crop, is it liquidy? Smell her breath, is it foul? Try to give her sugar water with a syringe maybe... Have they been wormed recently?

How old is she?
Photos of her poop?

If you are treating for Coccidiosis and using Corid, the Corid is the only thing that should be in the water. Leave out the Electrolytes.

Powder dose of Corid is 1 1/2 teaspoons of powder per gallon of water.

I would work on getting her hydrated, have her sip the medicated water several times a day. Once she's drinking well, then offer a bit of wet chick starter.
Good idea about checking to see if her crop is emptying.

How long has she been like this?
Was she vaccinated for Marek's?

She is 8 week old this Wed. Her poop didnt look so odd. I will take a pic next time she poops. I've been cleaning it up.

Her crop feels to be empty. I couldnt feel much of it. She has been like this since friday night and I took her inside and kept her warm.

I don't smell anything foul in her breath.

She was vaccinated for Marek's.

I took out the save- a-chick from the water.. Only Corid in there.

Thanks for the advice.

Since you have started with the Corid I would see if that makes a difference.
At 8 weeks old, it may be Marek's, hard to know. Do what you can for her.
