Word of warning, I strongly advise against Googling the above phrase.
Down to business: we have a chick that hasn't been eating on her own. We've been feeding her QuikChick/sugar water out of an eye dropper but she doesn't peck at the chick starter feed or go over to the QuikChick dish on her own. She is 4 days old. She's also quite small compared to the other chicks and gets pushed around a lot.
I had read that feeding chicks a small amount of yogurt might help with pastebutt (if that's the issue)...long story short, yogurt isn't readily handy, but breastmilk is. Thoughts?
