Can anyone help me figure out what happened to my first chick? He hatch 6 days before all the others and seemed perfectly healthy. Then when i checked on the chicks after the first night with all the chicks together my forst chick (Ocline) was dead. His butt was not wet, no signs of picking to death, maybe they sat on him? Here are a few pics of him.
Any ideas? Thank you guys for all your help

Thanks for your help guys, I think it may have been dehytdration/starvation, because I never saw him eat/drink even though I showed him multiple times. I have 3 eggs that could still hathc (none have pip) and 11 chicks, if any more pass away I will for sure be doing some investigation. R.I.P: Oclinecould be one of many things . it hatched before the others by a few days so heat might be a factor. feed as well no pasty butt . so it could be something internal it was unassisted so it was healthy enough to hatch. it could have eaten something in the shavings . I see the chick thermometer . so your right on there . but sometimes they seem to die for no reason. I'm sure there is always a reason but sometimes you just don't know what that reason is. large producers expect losses and hatch in large numbers to off set those losses 100 % hatches are hard to get . no one is willing to say more than a fifty % hatch on shipped eggs 80 % on your own eggs gathered on the farm. and this is if your good and lucky. you are learning the down side of hatching . sorry for your loss I know you work hard at your hatches . are there any more coming or have they all hatched ? super busy today treating flocks and cleaning coops will be back on line latter in the afternoon good luck with the rest .
