sick bantam

[stoppy]

My 9 month old bantam has become unwell
She is struggling to walk and I keep finding her laying on her side in the pen. We regularly worm our chickens and check for mites and that seems to be all clear. We have recently got 2 Lil chicks, is it possible she could have caught something from them even though they seem to be healthy? Please help
:/

My hen was like that, she couldnt walk, it was caused by food poisoning in feed. I was sure she was going to die,. I didnt have a heart to kill her. I gave her canteloupe she was glad to eat that, she was up after a week!

Did you quarantine your little chicks?
