Polish cockerel paralyzed?

There's a lot of urates in his poop, I'd really focus on hydration. Sulfa drugs can be hard on the kidneys, but I would finish the course of treatment.
I'm not sure what's going on with him. Hopefully the medication will make a difference.
Thanks, he is drinking well, as the infection in the foot is better maybe I'll lessen the dose of sulfamet. He's looking like he's giving up on life today though, so it might be a moot point.
 
Well, he didn't make it. I'm really leaning toward mycotoxicosis from the symptoms and the monsoon season timing. I noticed that with Mareks, they birds have flaccid paralysis, but mine have had a rigid, contracted paralysis. also 2/4 have recovered.
I'm building a raised, covered spot for their food to try to eliminate the problem. Thanks everyone for all the help!
