Please help. Pullet has lost a TON of weight. Coccidiosis?? Please help me save her!!

Are you still treating her with the Corid? I would definitely keep that up, just in case that's what this is.

Oh yes. I have it in her water now, and just in case she isn't getting much, I am force feeding it to her twice a day with an eye dropper by recommendation of my sister who has lots of experience with birds.

She is doing much better, and she actually managed to eat a whole jar lid of food this morning!

If you are worried about her being blind check her pupils. They should be crystal clear.

I have checked her pupils, and they are a dark brown color. She has never shown any signs of blindness until now, so would her pupils turn clear in a day?

A blind bird's pupils will go foggy. If you aren't sure if they are foggy you can check by flicking close to their eye a few times. The bird should pull away. If it doesn't when you do this then it is most likely blind.

Oh no!

You tried so hard. I am sure she knew she was loved!

I am sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry to hear this, Jenae!

And right when we both thought she was going to make a recovery, too!

Sorry for your loss. I know how you feel...

Thanks everyone.

I am so crushed by her death. I really thought she was going to recover. She died in my arms, and I'm sure she knew she was very loved.

Thanks so much to everyone who helped me! I appreciate it very, very much.
