Thank you!! I just put him near the food and he was devouring it, for like 20 minutes so now I feel really bad cause I think he just couldn’t get to it that easily but I fixed that problem. But I think that’s a good sign he at least has such a good appetite?

So, I don't know your nutrition regimen for the flock, what do you do for their water?

As I have run across stuff here, I have added stuff and set into a rotation of sorts... Everyone's water gets a splash of apple cider vinegar, a small tsp of minced garlic & when the temps stay above 50° I add ice. The rotations are the rooster booster liquid, hydro-hen & was there something else???? Anywho those are usually once a week on rotation.

I'll bet the Roo's diggin' the solo access to food & water now (smirks) the way you described it I can almost visualize it.

I honestly don’t really do anything special to the water.

Usually just regular water.

I do sometimes put apple cider vinegar or NutriDrench in young chicks’ water though but not usually in adults.

That said though, I have actually been putting NutriDrench in his water for a couple days and the other day I gave him a NutriDrench soaked piece of bread so he’s been getting vitamins but getting worse.

But yes he is definitely loving the solo food access!! And the wait service!! Hahah

Having had the deal with Wry-neck in one of our silkie girls several months back, I know it's hard to watch them suffer/struggle..... I want to say that I was sooooo thankful from a comment someone shared "in the nick of time" for me.... I was not ready for any form of ceribral seperation. They shared a link to their thread detailing hot to safely put them to sleep with ethyr ..... Just like they used in WWII etc, I can recall my Gramps show us how to use ethyr to put bugs to sleep for specimen jars when I was growing up in the 70's....
