Urgent Can anyone help? Rocky showing red veins in crop

[Tracylee]

Hi all, Rocky turned 1 week old today but the past 12+ hours he has not emptied his crop fully. I gave him 1ml of formula with a little apple sauce and I noticed little red veins. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Your humidity will be very important, often some dehydration is playing a role. But as you saw, I couldn't say if there is an infection that needs treatments.

Sometimes I really hate where I live no Avian vets anywhere close 4-5 hour drive sorry that's not happening they would be closed by the time I got there

I'm glad you hit him to the veterinarian, and got him started on antibiotics! I'm hoping he bounces back fast for you
