One of my little chicks (3 days old) keeps opening her mouth and in a rythmic way, looks like she is having trouble breathing or pooping. I cleaned her little butt at 2am and she promptly pooped.
She is still doing it though. I made her drink water... she just sits there with this open/close open/close the beak.
What else can I do for her?
UPDATE: Thanks for the help. She died the second day I had her. Her little rear was clear but her umbilical cord was strange. She just could not do it. I felt bad but at least she was only a few days old. I separated her and held her and loved her...
Thanks,
Ellie
