Trouble breathing

[Ongiegirl36]

It's no longer flipping on its back! It's also trying to take interest in feeding. A lot more aware! It still can't walk properly and I do need to continue hand feeding, but it's trying!

That is really good and also a sign it is probably nutritional versus brain. Except is this bird blind did you say?

I thought it was a first because I wasn't responding to anything around it, even when I put my finger right next to its eye. After a bit of hand watering it some vitamin water though it's perked up and begun to follow its siblings and peck at bugs!

So I know ik posting a bit frequently but I'm so worried! The chick I've talked about in previous posts is now gasping a little? And distress calling. It still can't stand, and now it's barely opening its eyes. It's only 2-3 days old. I wanted to try and give it some water but if it's gasping I'm not sure if I should its a bit shaky as well. I put it in a container and somewhat buried it almost to make sure it doesn't roll on its back again because it wants too. I'm so anxious!!!

Edit: It's also lethargic. It struggles to cheep or stand for about 20 seconds then pits it's head down and stays motionless

Update for anyone who might find this thread, it's doing so well! It can stand, run, eat, and drink all by itself with no problems!!

Final update on this thread. Arthur, the chick in question, very, very, very sadly did happen to pass away by a hawk attack at around 3 months old. He was a very sweet chick and loved to be cuddled and had absolutely no health issues. He fully recovered and did very well up until his passing
