Sick Rooster

I don’t know what’s wrong with him…. he has the same symptoms as the chicken who died a month ago: lethargy and clear/white diarrhea… but otherwise nothing notable, no discharge, no smells, nothing. So, I brought him inside and made him a warm nest. Every hour I’ve been giving him a little bit of garlic, molasses, cream and water mixed. I also put a few drops of an herbal tincture on his skin. Each time I go in he seems a little more alert and lively, but still sitting down and resting mostly, with his eyes closed. Just now I rubbed an oil similar to this one on his head, nose, and under his wings. We’ll let him sleep for the night and hope things are looking up in the morning.
