Chirping
UPDATE: She has passed away most likely due to suffocation (another chicken was on her). Feel free to continue this conversation for future reference.
We used 4cc per quart for sick chickens and 2cc per quart for the others of Denagard 12.5% with a 1/2 teaspoon of honey because the meds don't taste good (dissolve in hot water in a small cup first). Dip there beak, avoiding their nostrils, into the water if they don't drink on their own. Do not feed medicated feed to chicks that are being medicated, only unmedicated feed. This is information from my vet. She says Denagard does wonders and that my girl would of been much better by tomorrow, but she didn't make it until then. She was a strong girl, that's for sure.
I've had a chick with this problem before, so I knew something was wrong with her. She was too calm. Now she's showing more symptoms of the same thing that happened to the last chick. She's not growing, she's very sleepy, she can barely keep her eyes open, she's wobbly and can barely stand, she's not active, she seems to breathe heavier than the others. She does eat, though I haven't seen her drink. Her vent is clear but I don't think I've seen her poop.
Is there anything I can do for her?
EDIT: She had multiple seizures a few hours ago (I made a frantic post about it, if you would like to know the time). Ever since then she has been in a similar state to what she was like before, maybe a little worse.
