She keeps hunching and falling over! HELP!

Hope she will continue to improve - poor girl, you can tell by her pictures, she was really feeling bad.

I woke up this morning to a little girl perching on her food dish ! She had a full crop and is doing much better. Hopefully she will continue to improve! She is trying to drink water in this picture!

Absolutely wonderful news NC!

Glad to see that she is doing well. Hoepfully you can get her back into her flock, but watch for any bullying or keeping her from food. The others probably should be wormed as well. Keep us updated on how she gets along.

She is going the through a seperate treatment so she has to be seperated till that is over, but then she will be reunited with her sister and rest of the flock. They are very close (as you can see in my ID picture) the whole flock is being treated with a dewormer and we hope, and are crossing our fingers no one else will get this bad!

UPDATE: My little bird is steadely getting better. She finished her first round of dewormer and will start the second one on Tuesday. She has put on a little weight and is eating and drinking allot! It warmed up a couple days so I put her outside (while I was taking care of my other chickens and ducks) for like an hour and she really enjoyed that! She is perking up and loves hanging with me for a little while each day! Hoping she will continue to get better! Have a good night!

Just to clarify she was in a seperated pen from the other birds just as a preventive measure.

My little girl has finished both rounds of dewormer and is still active. She is eating and drinking some, but isn't eating much. She is still extemly skinny and spends most of her time roosting. Her poo is normal, but there isn't very much. Her crop is allot of the time empty. Any idea's? She will eat a little oatmeal if i give it to her and i bought her a treat block which she shows little to no intrest in. She spends a couple minutes outside everyday. Should I try to give her diffrent food? Should I get her some bird toys or something? What do you guys think I should do? She just isn't gaining weight as I hoped. Thank you for your time!
