How about a lovely nutritious Mealworm Smoothie?
Use some handfeeding formula, freezedried mealworms, wheat germ, applesauce and blend well.
Throw away blender afterwards..it's not Fear Factor...LOL

Can you gavage a chicken?

Come on Zane we a rooting for you.

i think the mealworms helped save my Sunny's life this winter. I'm so glad you are seeing improvements Cyn!!!

Well, Zane isn't doing as well today as he was yesterday. He couldn't stand, although he did try twice. He still is eating, but when we put him down after holding him, he doesn't uncurl his feet, a worrisome sign. His face has lost alot of color, too. Perhaps there is swelling somewhere along the spine that needs to go down, maybe a nerve is pinched or something, and time will fix that, but I don't know how to tell. How long can this go on? Hawkeye's son deserves dignity in his life, not laying in his own poop, slowly starving to death. Although he is eating, obviously he isn't eating near what he normally would be and he's lost all his muscle tone from laying prone like he is. I just don't know what to do. He's been on antibiotics for several days now and I plan to keep him on them for probably 10 days or so, like they normally recommend with chickens. After that, if he has not improved, I just dont want to think about it.

Aww nuts.

 

[keeperofthehearth]

Sigh! Praying for Zanes recovery. My heart goes out to you.

 

[CarriBrown]

Oh Cyn.... I just don't know what to say. :aww

 

[SpottedCrow]

darn darn darn

Come on Zane don't make me come down there!!!

 

[jeaucamom]

Oh Cyn, that is very distressing news. I am very sorry, and will be praying harder for him and you both. I believe in miracles!!

 

[jeaucamom]

Is there any possiblity of getting an Xray? Then at least you would know what you are dealing with!!
