[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 347283, member: 3444"] Trying to spoon water into easy child's very sick Butterscotch :( I started her on a sulfa drug in her water for the third time yesterday (was following treatment instructions for two other possible GI infection diagnosis's, and those didn't work, so am now trying a third protocol). Poor chickie has had the runs fir a while. easy child forgot to put the water and food in the coop last night when she locked up the birds. When I opened the door this morning, Butterscotch was laying down sleeping on the coop floor and didn't open her eyes (not normal). On closer inspection she looks severely dehydrated. So now I'm trying to get some fluids in her. She's taken a small amount and already her eyes look better, but if I can't get more in her and get her to eat some mash today, she may not make it. :( Not looking forward to the drama a dead chicken will incite in easy child...
