I'm sorry I don't know if the liquids in very wet mash are sufficient. Is her poop normal? Or seems it to be kind of 'dry'?Thank you so much. She seems to very very slowly be doing better. She still cant stand on her legs but I fell her pushing a bit with them. She is really tiny compared to her sibling chicks granted they are not silkies but I am hoping she will grow a bit faster. I am worried about when the time comes to integrate her back to the group (fingers crossed) that it will be problematic.
She wont drink which worries me that she is not getting enough liquids. I make sure to add a lot of liquid to her mash but does anyone know if that is enough?
Still alive thank goodness but no luck with the walking. I'm having to offer feed and water to her every hour. She has a little chick sling she stays in a few times a day for a half an hour or so. I am doing little exercises with her and the physical therapy you described above a few times a day and she does move her legs but still is not strong enough to hold herself. I cant really tell if she's gaining strength. I dont really know if I'm doing too little or too much physical therapy. She seems really frustrated but she does seem to like being held by me. I am actually typing this response with one hand because she is sitting in my other hand . She cant sit on her own btw. She is still in the same room with her fellow chicks so I feel like she has company but they are getting really big really fast. I'm a bit at a loss - I think there's going to be a point where I'm going to have to start thinking about quality of life for her. Its so sad. Thanks for asking.
That's awesome news!I just wanted to let everybody know I got an appointment with an avian vet tomorrow morning. I am so relieved.
