So this is my first time raising baby chicks...I think we're doing a pretty good job, but one of my 8 day old barred rock chicks seem to be sleepier than the rest of them. She definitely sleeps more than the others but I have seen her eating and she is definitely rambunctious when she is awake. I assume babies just need a lot more sleep and it's normal, but I want to make sure I'm not overlooking something. I've been giving them fresh food and water everyday, they have a heat lamp and a clean brooder and I've been checking their butts to make sure there's no poop stuck over their vent. Is there anything else I can be doing differently? And should i be worried about the little one?
Thanks!
