Sick Cuckoo Maran

[A Hot Chick]

Hello!

I’m a first time chicken owner- my 11 week old cuckoo maran started acting sick today. It was very sudden- yesterday she seemed fine but this morning she is very weak. She has difficulty standing and is laying down with her neck outstretched. I noticed even when she stands upright that she can’t seem to straighten her head. I’ve isolated her and am giving her electrolyte and vitamin water. She seems to be eating okay- I put her next to a food dish and she pecks at it fairly often, but other than that she doesn’t really move. Any idea what could be wrong?

Can she walk alright?

She was stumbling around a bit in the beginning- almost like she was drunk/dizzy. She actually seems to be doing a lot better now- still subdued but she’s standing and eating/drink on her own! Will continue to watch-idk what happened!

She may have been dehydrated, you might want to give her sugar water.
