Dar here is a booster that you can feed the girl. Omit the yogurt if giving antibiotics.
To help a bird recover from illness, they need extra protein.. this formula really helps them with thier recovery
My Treatment is this
This amount feeds one bird
Feed the birds three times a day for three days a mixture of
This mixture is what you will need for the entire three feeds . It is not 3 egg yolks and 3 teaspoons of honey etc . divide the contents into three
½ to 1 x egg yolk .. give the whites to the other hens mixed into their seed or pellets (depends a lot on the size of the egg yolk)
1 teaspoon honey . .given for energy
2 x tablespoons yoghurt . Given for calcium and also to make the bowel go back into normal production after this upset
Only use the plain yoghurt never the one with fruit or extra sugar in it, not good for the bird
¼ teaspoon calcium powder (if you cant get the yoghurt)
3 to 4 tablespoons rolled oats . To give substance to the feed, or use chicken crumbles or layer pellets but soften them with some boiling water first
Sprinkle of multi vitamin powder (only if you are not already giving it to them in their drinking water, dont overdose) just a few grains will usually be enough for this size mixture
2 to 4 table spoons of apple sauce or grated apple, it must be grated not chopped up for ease of digestion
Mix to make a crumble mixture not runny
If the bird is not eating you will have to force feed... roll into small pellets the same size as a layer pellet.... and force feed, and then massage the neck in a downward motion to get it down into the bired crop, make sure your keep the neck straight, its really hard getting someting down a neck that is bent or curved, the bird may be too weak to eat or have lost the desire to eat . Dont hold back . The longer it goes without this the worse it will get
If you must give it something to drink only give drops onto the beak or use the crop tube to get fluids down the throat, dont try and pour any fluid down a chickens throat, it will more than likely go into the air passage and into the lungs and end up drowning the bird
This will give the bird a large dose of Vitamin D, C and A
After 3 days cut back to once a day for 2 weeks, you should notice the difference in 3 or 4 days
Give other food also, chick crumbles, grower crumbles or layer pellets depending on the age of the bird etc
Also have fresh water at all times for the birds to drink in easy reach, remember it is not well so it may not go looking for the food and water, so put it just about under its nose so it cant miss it
