If it's acting normal (eating, drinking, and pooping) there is a very good chance it will make it. If it starts to decline, let me know and I'll tell about another option.
Does her belly smell? does it look bloated compared to the others??Within the last hour she has made a drastic decline, not eating, drinking or walking and not laying normally. She is struggling. I did give her some water (which contained some vitimans) with a syringe carefully as to not let her breathe it in, but no improvement. Any other ideas?
Can you take a video of her, upload it to youtube or vimeo, then copy/paste the link here?
So sorry for your loss. There is nothing that you could have done to prevent it, and the treatment I was going to suggest is very risky. Yolk sac infections are probably the leading cause of death in chicks and ducklings, and the hatchery should not have sent that one, and the feed store should not have sold it.I am at a loss for words. She flailed around for 10 seconds and passed. Other than starting the vitimans and electrolytes sooner, is there anything else i couldve done to prevent this? Ive never seen an animal go down hill so fast. She wasn't even struggling to breathe.
