Hello,
This chick has something going on with its umbilical cord attachment area...
We have lost the occasional chick who looked like this before. This girl has just hatched, and if there is anything we can do to help we would like to be proactive.
Other chicks in this hatch look fine.
Many...
Our Black Australorp pullet that was sold to us as a pure breed, is showing a small amount of copper mottling in her neck feathers. Is she what we were told she is?
Thank you for your support and advice.
Yes, we decided it was money well spent to save him from how he was being kept. Glad that he's had a few days of love and care at the end. 😢
