Near Death Silkie after exposure

[Three Cedars Silkies]

After not eating for a period of time, they lose the desire for food. I had this happen recently to a pullet and I made a mash of the feed, cut the tip off of a 10cc syringe so the hole was much bigger and drew up the mash. Opened her beak and pushed some in. After doing this for several hours, off and on, she starting acting like she wanted it and by the next day she was eating out of a bowl if we held it for her.

Same with water. Opened her beak and dropped water in for the first day. Next day she would open her beak when we dribbled it along side and the next day was drinking on her own.

How much did you feed her by syringe? It's day four and the silkie still won't eat or drink on her own.

My silkie won't drink but will have yogurt. She doesn't like vanilla. She will eat blueberry (with small blueberries visible).
She is starting to eat her own food but still refuses to drink.

I'm in the same boat. She may have been stuck outside for 1 night.

She has been inside for about a week now.
