Thank you for the help. I will check the others in a second!

The other chicks seem and act fine.

The runny nose and the difficulty breathing. Not saying it is CRD. Just saying it is something to do with her respiratory tract. She can pull through, but she might not. It could be corezya. Does her snot smell?

It could be ILT. It could be a lot of things. All of these involve the respiratory system though

I sure hope she pulls through!

Nope! Well, i'm wondering if she also has something digestive. She has only pooped twice in the past few hours.

ILT Signs of the Disease

Affected birds may have difficulty breathing and will cough and gasp. These birds may stand with their wings spread, with their head and neck extended, and struggle for air. Other birds may show milder signs with discharges from their eyes and nostrils. Some affected birds may simply be found dead. Up to 100 per cent of a flock can be affected with up to 70 per cent dying.


Coreyza Signs

Both these bacterial infections produce foamy, watery eyes, discharge from the nostrils, and sometimes swollen sinuses. Unlike fowl cholera, deaths rarely occur. Affected chicks and poults do not grow well, and the flock appears uneven in size.

Hmm, definitely not the first one. Guess what! I checked her, and her nose isn't running anymore!!!

Just being sure. If you notice struggling to breath later, you will know what it could mean.

Is it not running because you wiped it?

Is she eating?

If you put AVC in their water tomorrow, it will help with any constipation/diarrhea. Even if the others are not sick, this is something that should be done every single day. It's very good for them.

No, i did not wipe it because it wasn't runnung!
I will ask my mom to get AVC tomorrow and i will keep an eye on them. I may have to get off soon, so if I don't reply, you'll know why. But still feel free to give info!

She isn't eating, but i'll try again.

She could just not be pooping because she hasn't eaten anything recently.

What's her favourite food? Getting anything into her is your best bet. I've heard that even soaking up bread with water is a good idea for them. Not white bread. Bread is not generally good for them, but it's better than nothing. Make it soggy with water. Update us tomorrow morning with any progress. Hope she feels better!
