Gotta get him to eat something.

Yesterday he was slow. But nothing like today. The first post has a video and pic of how I found him when I opened coop this morning. His crop feels normal. Not squishy. Not hard. It's empty tho. He won't eat. Only drink a little when I touch it to his beak.

I wouldn’t call that drinking; just the muscle memory response to feeling the water at the tip of the beak.

Yes. I've tried that and soaked bread with a little crumble feed and tuna and some pumpkin. I've given water with electrolytes and vitamin b & e too.

Oh okay. So should I stop doing that or is it at least getting something in him?

I would not stop, it’s at least getting a little in him, correct.

Thanks. I hope I'm doing the right things. I'm just so nervous for him!

If anyone has any ideas on what I can do to try to get him to eat I'd appreciate it! I've even tried his absolute most favorite which is corn on the cob and he wants nothing to do with it. I'm going to try some more eggs and stuff in a little bit but any ideas on other things would be good too

He just crowed for the first time since around 1 or so yesterday afternoon. Hopefully maybe a good sign?

Any chance he got into the compost or something toxic?
