State a fact about yourself!

Is researching tube feeding. I'm trying to find out if it's a safe method of feeding or not. I have a 13 week old pullet who is unable to eat by herself, and feeding her with a syringe 3 times a day, 30 minutes per time, just isn't an option anymore...

(If anyone has any information on tube feeding, I would really appreciate it!)
is she temporarily unable to eat, or permanently? If she is permanently unable, ou may consider culling her, because it would reduce her quality of life.

We have not idea if it's temporary or not. She got wet fowl pox and has had it for 3 weeks now, and hasn't been able to eat on her own. She is very healthy and happy otherwise. She just has trouble eating and drinking without help. I have no problem with helping her eat, I'm just curious about the safety of tube feeding.
