I'm so sorry your chick isn't well. Can you help us? Tell us what age he is, where he came from, what he's eating? What his droppings look like, is he eating or drinking at all? Does he have anything in his crop that you can feel? Any symptoms or even a photo would help us help you much more. I hope he's still okay. It sounds like you are not home right now but keeping him warm once you get home will help.

What have you done for him? How many chicks in the brooder? Temp of brooder? What are you feeding? What is the temp in warm and cool end? I doubt he will survive the day. But, going forward, Poultry Nutri Drench is the best bet for ALL chicks whether they are robust and growing well, or whether they are "failure to thrive".

So sorry you can't be there with him. Please update us when you get back home.

He was almost fully feathered, so he was outside for the last couple of weeks. We kept him with two other chicks of mine, but they were about three weeks older. I'll tell you all if he's still alive by when I get home, though I doubt my parents listened to me and took care of him like I asked.

Sorry for the long wait, he ended up dying while I was at school, but luckily none of my other chicks got sick.
