    Sick chick - Third in a row

    Hey realsis, thanks for the quick reply. We brought her to the vet today. He gave him some shots in the chest. She is better now. Standing on her feet. She still gasping but the rattling voice is not there. Drinking water too and picking up some grains. I may give another visit to the vet tomorrow.

    Bantam Cochin thread.

    These are of the small flock I got. They are completely adorable. Don't have more pics. This is the only good one I got so far. I got another pullet, but she's younger than these, so, I separated her for a bit to save her from wild pecking. Though, she's now moved in the main coop with these...

    Chicks dying

    They all are under 10 days. They are indoor in a room. They got the space to move away from the lamp.
