    Chick

    I have a chick with a dislocated.. Hock? It pops when she moves it and she can't really walk on it. Is there any way to put it back in place? She's so young.. Has time to heal.

    "Lockdown"?

    Hi Cluckerkeeper! We were up until 2:30am, my 17 yr old daughter and I. We ended up assisting 3 chicks last night and one more this morning. They did need help as they were shrink wrapped inside a paper like body bag. The shell had separated from it. So we did have one who.started bleeding...

    "Lockdown"?

    "Lockdown"?

    I have a question... I got ahead of myself and did the lockdown Monday 17th night instead of Wednesday night, 19th. I've been real careful not to let my homemade foam incubator go over a 101 and it is forced air. I'm wondering if I should turn off the fan and open air vents? Fearing inside egg...
