    Sudden Chicken Death Syndrome?

    I went out this morning to give the flock food and fresh water and saw my girl "Mama" laying in the corner, very weak, one wing hanging, not able to walk, but still alive. I picked her up, brought her into the house, because it's cold here in PA, and fed her and gave her water from a "syringe"...

    *UPDATE*.......... THE BABIES ARE HERE!!!

    Well, I separated the two girls and the babies from the rest of the flock. I just put them in a little rabbit hutch inside the coop, because my cousin said that some of his flock were killing his chicks, and I don't want to take that chance. They both seem to be taking care of ALL the babies...

    *UPDATE*.......... THE BABIES ARE HERE!!!

    Thank you all so much for responding. I was just out there again, and was candling to see if I could see anything any better in the dark. There are definitely 2 that I believe are "duds", but the rest just have like the air pocket at the one end. I actually saw two of the babies move! One...

    *UPDATE*.......... THE BABIES ARE HERE!!!

    Ok, so the eggs have been there since May 29th & 30th, and I have been going out periodically all day today to see if anything is happening, and nothing...... Do you think they're going to hatch? I mean is there any special time, like night time, or during the day, that they usually start to...

    *UPDATE*.......... THE BABIES ARE HERE!!!

    Thanks for the response brairgirl. I'll be out there checking on them all day tomorrow, and Thursday. I do have a question though. Their nesting box is about 2 feet off the ground. Are they going to try to get out right away, or should I move them once they hatch? I also wanted to add pics of...

    *UPDATE*.......... THE BABIES ARE HERE!!!

    I left 12 eggs out for my girls to hatch, and my GLW has been sitting on them for almost the entire time, but when she leaves the nest to eat and drink, I have another hen (an EE mix) that hops in and tries to steal them from her. LOL! She gets very upset, so what I did was divide the 12 between...
