My cockerel has lost a fight, and is very weak and won’t drink or eat, HELP!!

[Emilyschickenslife]

This morning two of my cockerels have gotten themselves into a fight, one of them lost (cooper) and he is now laying down in a separate bit to the other chickens, but he looks to be very weak and I haven’t seen him eating or drinking, what can I do?

Here’s a picture of his eye, I have cleaned it but as you can see here it just keeps on bleeding, his other eye is fine though. He does stand up sometimes but I haven’t seen him have any food or water and I think that’s a big problem and I don’t know how to get him to eat and drink

He’s been sleeping most the time aswell. If you can help me please do!

Welcome to BYC.
I recommend that you flush his eye with saline solution, pat dry, then apply a small dab of Neosporin in his eye. Then continue with the Neosporin as needed without flushing his eye.

I also recommend giving him Poultry Nutri Drench, one drop orally 4 times a day. The bottle contains an eyedropper. Once he improves, reduce giving it to him to twice a day. Poultry Nutri Drench can be found in a feed store or TSC.

Lastly, get him started on Amoxicillin 250mg twice a day for no more than 7 days. Here's where you can get it. Even though it's for fish, it will work for your rooster.
Make him a wet mash containing Scratch and dried mealworms to eat.
