PLEASE HELP

[mia12]

hello please help! i currently have two silkie chicks in a brooder. one of them is really active and eating and drinking. However, the other one just sleeps. i think the other chick is concerned about her because she runs over her and cherps really loudly near her and tries to wake her up. i tried to give her some water of some egg yolk but her eyes just close and her mouth is shut and won’t open. she won’t even chirp! i am really concerned. please respond! it is urgent.

Have you checked her vent for pasty butt? If she is pooping, do her poops look normal? Add vitamins and electrolytes to their water and encourage this one to drink.
Where did you get the chicks?

Welcome! Sorry your chick isn’t doing well. I responded in your other thread

Hopefully the ER peeps will be able to assist. Beyond adding to drinking water electrolytes / vits I have no further suggestions.

Good luck
