All my attempts to tube feed flopped. I didn't have the right tube from work.... then the two stores I walked in didn't have the powdered Kaytee stuff so I bought non med chick grower thinking I could blend up and liquefy. Nope, can't get it blended up enough to go thru even the NG tube I found tucked away from nursing school. Ugh. Poured the gruel into the birds food bowl and she is happily drinking it up. I think the hens higher power is telling me its up to her at this point aside from the inj I am giving her.
