3 month old chick issue-need solutions ASAP

[orangesplash]

I’ve given amoxicillin and panadol to the 3 month old chick who has its feathers droopy and is just sitting in one place.

No other symptoms. The wings/feathers are droopy and it’s not moving around.

Need help please

Does your place have any history of coccid? Can you post a picture of the chick? Have you had any other birds act like this? What feed (including brand) are you feeding?

Sorry, I can't help that much. But I'd try to give her water with electrolytes in it, see if it helps - it could help a lot. Could she be too hot? Is she outside, and how is she breathing (panting?) Hope she gets better soon!

Can you buy some amprollium or sulfadimadine where you live, and treat for possible coccidiosis? Symptoms of coccidiosis are acting sleepy, not eating, hunched or puffed up posture, and diarrhea with yellow mucus or blood. Here is an article about coccidiosis:
