Speedy evening update

Speedy drank about 40mls of the fluid today, I'm hoping tomorrow she'll attempt solids.
Speedy is starting to take small steps, using her wings as crutches. But her eyes remain shut most of the day. Her strength has just amazed me, for such a small chicken I thought she would have died ages ago. She even sat on my leg today when I fed her some liquid.
With all this new water I'm on alert with all other ducks and chickens contracting the infection.
