I have a Serama cockerel that has been lethargic for a few days and will not eat or drink on his own. I can get water in him but he will not eat. He has been treated for cocci about 3 4 weeks ago. This is a picture of his poop this morning and I was hoping someone can tell what it might be by looking at it. Thank you

Have you tried mixing and feeding some chicken feed with a lot of water and some chopped egg? How does the crop feel?
Crop is empty today but when I brought him in yesterday I made him eggs with chick feed and some Nutri drench. He did try to eat that but only took one bite. He hasn't tried to eat since
 
Do you have a picture? That sounds like possible wry neck. It sounds like he would be better off seeing a vet. Have you had him vaccinated for Mareks disease, or have you ever seen any birds with Mareks before? I also would have his poop sample checked by the vet as well for parasites, in case he has had a relapse.

Let me get a picture for you. No he has not been vaccinated yet.

I don't think it's rye neck but I'm not a vet and have seen that before. Here is a picture.
