I have a chick that I just found to be lethargic, and when I picked her up I had no trouble catching her with her slow movements She is about 2 weeks old and is not underweight, has no poo on bum...I'm going to watch and see if she will eat or drink but, I doubt it as she isn't sitting up when I set her down
now I noticed she appears to be waddling, limping...I don't have any idea what could have happened but, I suppose I should isolate her?...Her hock joint on one leg is swollen and pink...that leg is trembling... I can imagine she is in a bit of pain, what can I do, give her?
I've isolated her now and she's sad about it but, she is eating well and drank water with trivisol gladly from a dropper. I'm only wondering about painkiller now whether I can give her a tiny amount of aspirin or the like? I suppose everyone is at church this morning...
