Wellsummer hen cant stand or fly and cracked beak

I'm sorry she's not improving.

It could be that you are dealing with Marek's disease, it's hard to know unless you lose her and have necropsy/testing done through your state lab. https://www.metzerfarms.com/poultry...llb5Rqe_-BzWlYtxmd1n84yqvtaFdWxn_j_E8vVS3jpZh

Only you can make the call when it's time to let her go.

In the meantime, I'd continue to get the vitamins into her, see that her crop is emptying. You can try placing her in a sling when she can be supervised to get her more upright position.
Thank you!! I put her back in the sling last night
 
Shes still here. I couldnt do it.i had her in position to do the dislocation and i just couldnt. I know its part of farm life but i just couldnt. I started her on antibiotics-her throat is very gunky and her nose discharge smells awful.If it doesnt help, it has to be done. I contacted the necropsy place and i think i can bring her in alive and theyll euthenize her
I am so sorry.
 
Shesl passed away the day after my last comment. Her name was Scoop 😞
I am so very sorry, I have Welsummers. One at 10 weeks kind of got that way and I culled her. I suspected merricks
It is very possible she got frightened and flew into something at full speed- I have a rooster that was,, going to fly into the coop and missed and hit the door frame and broke his top of his beak. It grew back.
