    Need help asap my chicks sick

    She didn't make it. I had her in a separate container so she wouldn't get the other chicks sick and I got up all night checking on her and the last time I did she'd gotten stuck in the water bowl so I dried her off and warmed her up but she started to seize. She calmed back down and I went back...

    Need help asap my chicks sick

    Ok so about a week or 2 ago I got 10 chicks and I noticed 2 of them have a deformed beak to where the tops shorter than the bottom. They seem to have a harder time eating than the others and now the brown one is not doing good at all but I'm not sure if it's because she can't eat or if she's...

    It got down to the low 30s and high 20s so I wasn't having it I went out and got them at like 2am because even though we covered the wire floor there are 1-2 inch wide gaps all over the coop for ventilation and those had me worried. Every time I went out for my hourly checks throughout the night...

    Thank you so much for all of your advice. I know they're at least 2 or 3 weeks old cause that's how long ago the store I bought them from got them. By the way how old do they have to be to be able to start giving them little treats like yellow meal worms

    The red part has an open floor on it I kept telling everyone it needed to be covered with all the wacky weather we've been having here. We're in North Carolina and it's been up and down with the temperature for months. Any ways I told my family the bottom needed to be sealed but they thought it...
