Could it be that he is panting from stress rather than being too hot?

 

[EZFarms]

Maybe. he does only pant if something wakes up him amx scares him or if i pick him up fast

FnF is right it's probably stress.

I dont have any plyvsol atm what else can i give him

Poly-Vi-Sol no iron liquid vitamins is available in Walmart, Target, Rite-Aid, Walgreen's, CVS, and just about every supermarket in the baby aisles. It runs around $7 or $8.00

Do you have some Brewer's Yeast? It is high in B vitamins. Mix with a little water and boiled egg yoke to make a soft food. I did this (had to force feed my chick) plus gave Polyvisol and liquid B12 vitamins to a chick with a twisted neck (thiamine deficiency) and was able to save her.

Good luck with your chick!

I have officially got my silkie flock set.

Hopefully.

I have Lydia my hen whose 3. And her two babies who I hope are hens.

Damon. My black rooster who I'm sure is one. But if not no biggy.

Kira my blue hen who I'm sure is a hen.

Ichabod my infertile roo.. my ichbooboo

And last is Felicity. Her legs are going to be amputated. Vet said apparently past the knee is too far gone. So we will see if that will help. If it doesn't she will be euthanized. I've seen where they can adapt to stubs. I hate the idea. But she will be an inside chicken for the rest of her life.

I have rehomed silas, emery, 2 chicks, and roman. Due to they have crooked beak in genes. Luckily they will pets.

I now am starting over. None of the chicks I have now are related to that family. So wish me luck lol

also keeping it dark will help with lowering his stress level, I saved one with wry neck by what has been said here! good luck!
