[Chickenhuntin]

It's breathing so hard it can't peep. It lays down constantly. the head is drooped. And it can't stand straight with out fallen over. I am wigging out and I don't want this to spread to the rest of the flock if it can. What should I do? Please Help me!!!

sadly, I had a chick who had that once and she died

but the best you can do it: put her in your shirt and comfort her, separate her from the others, and keep a close eye on her.

Segragate her and do some disinfecting in case it's contagouse.Sounds like a infection so antibiotics and vitamins might help.

Ok I seperated It in a different brooder. Temp is between 90 and 95 It's one week old today. The others are doing fine, but should change the bedding as well? or is that over reacting? I just changed yesterday.

HE's a goner. Poor guy laying on it's back. I don't understand what happen to him. I bought home a cute Golden lace wyandotte though.
