As I mentioned in your other post, I think she's weak from transport, plus, she's smaller, so make sure she's getting enough to eat. I know you said you put Poultry Cell in their water, so that's good!

I would give her a special mash mix with a raw egg yolk mixed in. That may help the veins as I'm guessing she's also dehydrated.

Update: Silv is doing so much better today! a lot less drunk moments!!! a couple odd stuff with her eyes closing and head tilting up. The vet thinks that she has a few serious vitamin deficiencies no parasites she's been vaccinated for the breeders say that she was never on a medicated feed, but it just seems very neuro-esqu like thiamin deficiency would. not out of the woods but the healthy high cal and high nutrient foods you guys all recommended have been a hit!
