Brand new 3gal waterer leaked in my brooder and i now have 10 yucky week old broiler chicks (fair project) i have cleaned and replaced the bedding and the chicks are dty and warm under the heat lamp but their down is stiff and yucky from dried crumbles. Im afraid to wash them and stress them out (or get them chilled) they went right back to eating when i put them back in the brooder but now are resting (at a week old they already seem to get into lazy mode) do i risk washing them? Try to brush out what i can with a soft toothbrush? Or leave them alone?
It will be in the mid 50s tonite, low 70s tomorrow (but damp due to rain) and high 50s tomorrow night. Cold will return saturday with highs in the 50s and lows in the 30s
