One of our baby chicks just hatched and I noticed something hanging out of it. It looks like the chick didn’t absorb all of the yolk or something all the way. With the other 6 that hatched I’ve not seen this. 1 still had the membrane stuck from the shell and I just let that fall off on it’s on...

And all the chick bodies were there except two of them had their heads ripped off, and the other...

Four ducklings wandered into my yard yesterday morning. Just tonight, two of them died. We found the first lying dead. We thought maybe it had snapped it’s neck because they were laying at an odd angle. However, at 3am (2 hours later), another one was acting oddly. It seemed like the poor little...
