Some of you might know about my baby Mira who got hurt on her neck. She was doing well and we went away yesterday morning and just came home and she can’t walk right. I’m not sure if she was eating or drinking but she had plenty of water and food and the temperature seemed fine. I gave her some wet oatmeal, egg yoke and dripped some water on her beak since she won’t drink by herself. She walks backwards and she almost seems hunched over I’ll try to post a video and I will grab some pictures. Do baby chicks who are by themselves get lonely and stop eating and drinking if they think they are abandoned?

Hi! Do you have b complex on hand? Generic human brand, give her half a pill twice a day with a squeeze of some vitamin e into her beak. Pierce the capsule with a needle so you can squeeze it. @Wyorp Rock @azygous @Eggcessive does she need selenium as well?

Thank you for the quick reply! I’ll check and see if I have it. What do you think is wrong with her?

She might not be eating enough and with the trauma she needs more nutrients

Yes, I would make a concentrated dose and try to get baby to drink.
