It means that I turn off the lights at 9-10. I only have one chick and I really want to get more but can not due to personal reasons. And no he has not been moved yet
My four weeks old chick is usually put to sleep at 9-10 around when I get ready for bed and I've noticed that a lot of times when I go check on him he seems to just be standing around or laying down like he's sleeping but with his eyes open, half the time I thought he was dead. It's starting to...
So I started taking my week old chick outside for 10-20 minutes each day when it’s warm and he seems to enjoy it. However, I’ve seen him pecking at the ground and assumed he was pecking at bugs and left him be. But today I looked closer and he was actually eating the rocks and sticks?? I thought...
The chick sadly passed away yesterday afternoon :( it wasn't really surprising though. I thought she was getting better because she had been eating a bit but she got weaker really quickly. It was sad but I couldn't do anything about it
So my week old chick has been eating between a mix of eggs and medicated chick starter and he's been pooping out watery poop recently?? It's never happened for him before and I don't know if it's everytime he poops but I don't know if there's something wrong.
I’ve tried checking again but he won’t stop kicking, but I think he’s fine. I've noticed he's been pecking at the corner a lot (the corner with the stuffed animal and where him and the other chick used to sleep the most, don't know if it's a coincidence but just pointing it out).
This is my first time raising chicks so there's no adult chickens around. I have a heat lamp above the brooder and it's set to 82 Fahrenheit but it's usually one or two degrees lower than that. He also chirps loudly whenever he's cold so I don't think so.
So my week old chick is a very active chick, but when he was only a few days old he would chirp constantly whenever there's no one around. When my second chick hatched five days ago, I put her with him and he stopped chirping, but because the second chick was very weak to begin with, she...
When my second chick was being hatched, she’s already been in the egg for too long (40 hours) and the membrane was dried and sticking to her. I helped her get out of it but shes very weak. For the past four days all she’s been doing is sleeping while my other chick is very active and running...
I check the box for mold every evening and cleans out his poop often. I clean his food and drinks bowls everytime I change it. I honest don't know much else to do
