Hi everyone
I came home yesterday to find my silkie rooster lien on the ground
He cant stand and his foot on one side is all curled up
I put him in a cage in a warm room in my house he is barely eating or drinking
I noticed about a week ago he wasnt crowing and very quiet but I thought he was just gone quiet as there was a broody hen on eggs with him and he was staying with her 24/7
What has happened to my little man !
I tried feeding him some mashed up boiled egg . But barely took a nibble . Even though I found him yesterday he ate and drank while falling over but today he is falling over and staying down also he seemed to be taking a fit and stretching his legs out also . But mayb its down to the pain .
Also I only put him on fresh bedding a few hours ago and the smell is fowl . Stinking isnt the word for it

I feel so sorry for him. And he is my only silkie rooster and ill be devastated if something happens to him also his ladie companions

Any input would be most appreciated

Well Miss Louise, I sure do not know what is wrong with your little man. Poor little baby. I wish I could give you some advice. Have you tried some electrolytes? I had to give some to my baby goose. I used a dropper and put it up to his beak. That is my only advice for now. I'm sorry.

I cant get a good pic .
He done some just now and it was a squirting sound and its very runny now . He always had the proper poops now its a mess :(
 
I wish I could help. It seems like there is something very wrong with him. See if he will take drops of water. You can just drop it on the side of his beak. Don't force it so it doesn't go into his lungs.

Keep him comfortable. I'll be thinking about both of you.
