Wobbly chick. Weak, Nurological, or something else?

I dribble too. But I do wonder about putting the syringe in deep enough to pass the esophagus, which isn't far. Can anyone think of why that would not work?

Sorry it took so long, but I'm a photo perfectionist, haha! Takes me a while to get one I like. His/Her name is Sunny. She's doing great!

That would be like a crop needle?

I would think a tube would be much easier especially since you can measure it then tape the spot.

I tubed newborn rescue pups for a couple of weeks years ago, it was scary stuff.

It will work if the chick is large enough.
