Yes, how are they (1 and 2) doing? I wonder about both possibly losing all their toes. I certainly hope not. Time will tell. Thanks for posting the pictures and how you are caring for them.

Thank you for asking. I was actually going to post an update on them today. I forgot to take pictures of chick 2 but here is Little Foot. I’m hoping the frostbite doesn’t go up any more.

Her feet shake all the time unless they’re on something or we are holding them. Is that normal? Like really shake. My husband equated it to beating eggs and my one son said she could play the drums with her legs.
Forgot to add that chick 2 is looking much better and it doesn’t look like he will lose as many toes as I thought. Maybe just the tips of some. He’s coming along really well. I’ll try to remember to take pictures tomorrow morning.
This is exactly what I going to do. She's awesome and has done a phenomenal job with sweet Matilda@Allsfairinloveandbugs kept a well-documented thread about frostbite on feet, and the stages before the parts come off.

I have seen and read through this thread. Amazing. I actually think of Matilda every time I’m changing Little Foots bandages.@Allsfairinloveandbugs kept a well-documented thread about frostbite on feet, and the stages before the parts come off.

Chick 2 is a going to be heavier bird. Chick 3 will be too actually. They’re both light Brahma mixes. I think they’re both going to be boys too.Looks like you're doing a wonderful job taking care of those tiny feet I am cheering for all of them, especially #2 being that it's going to be a larger bird. Hopefully I haven't mixed up the chicks. I sure hate this happened to them but it seems like they're in wonderful, caring, and loving hands. I'm cheering you on as well
Do you think chick 3 still needs soaking? He has been losing toenails but I think that’s due to the frostbite.The toes are looking better. Keep us posted on their progress, and good job.
