Hi
I am a first time chick mom. I will have to be honest this is about as bad as being a real mom for this first time. I got them on Thursday and two are RI reds and Bard Rock cross and one a golden comet.
I have a very loud chick and she is very bossy. It was 87 and humid outside so I sat outside in the grass with them for about 10 minutes then brought them back in. They loved it. Now the one that is so loud is peeping non stop and every time I go in the room she stops comes to the edge of the brooder and tries to fly out. She is eating and drinking fine. Slept really good yesterday and today. Up running all over the box with the other two.
When she wouldn't hush I sat in the floor with her and let her run on the floor. She walked right up to me and jumped on my leg and balanced herself on my knee. She finally snuggled in my arm. Is there something wrong with my bird? She is just so loud? What am I doing wrong?
