Sick chick

[ARose]

Hi everyone! I need help, we have a chick who hatched around March 7th, she has lost a lot of weight, currently weighs 1lb 3oz, the inside of her beak is full of smelly slimy fluid, crop is empty. She's pretty lethargic but doesn't eat much but tries. How can I save her?

We have given her ACV, got her to eat a half ounce of wet medicated chick feed, giving her water with syringe.

Welcome To BYC

Can you post photos of her and the inside of her beak?

Does she have any facial swelling, coughing, sneezing, etc?

Could be canker.

If you have access to a vet, that would be a good idea.

I can try to get a picture today. No coughing, sneezing or swelling. The vet cannot see her until next week.
