He’s eating chick starter too
I’ve been giving him the b complex and it’s definitely made a difference. He’s not walking yet still but he’s putting in more effort to try and stand and he’s able to stand on his two feed for about a minute before he goes back on his hind legs. I really hope this...
Thank you for your reply!
Yes he is eating everything I give him for now I’ve given him some boiled eggs, mainly the yolk and some wheat but before he got sick he was on starter feed but did have the older hens layer pellets when he jumped into their coop
I have vitamin b complex for humans...
I have a chick who is about 4 months old. He is eating perfectly and drinking. But he won’t stand or walk on his feet.

Maybe but he is 8 days old now, which is why I was concerned. But other than that and the loose poo, he behaves like a normal chick. He also waddles when he walks but I think that’s just cause of the swelling

She was breathing very shallow and her membrane was beginning to go a very dark tan so I de used to help at around 6am this morning, I noticed that she pipped at around 9pm last night but she seemed abnormally weak and very tired that I...
This is my first time every incubating hens and a lot of my eggs have stopped developing,
Today is day 23, I think the temperature my incubator is showing me is wrong, I set it to 37.7 degrees but I think that it was actually much lower and so my chicks have taken longer to develop
One chick...
