New baby chicks

[cldineley]

Today I picked up 2 baby chicks from my feed store, 1 BR and 1 EE. I specially ordered females so I hope that's what they turn out to be. The EE wings seem to be droopy. They have gotten a little better since they have settled in the brooder. Should I be worried at it? The chick seems to be acting fine.

I wouldn't worry about it yet. Give her a couple days and it should turn around.

All 3 of my 11 day old had droopy wings when I got them at 1 day old. Don't worry at all, they have to build up strength in their little wings, all my girls are just fine now

Thanks for the replies. She is holding them up a lot better today.
