    Please help with weak baby chicken!! He keeps falling asleep?

    As far as with the sugar I read here and on other sites that it's only a short-term thing. I just wasn't sure how short, so very useful information you gave me there!! The crumble egg meal is already being served to the other one since it came out of the egg. This one, just doesn't seem to...

    Please help with weak baby chicken!! He keeps falling asleep?

    The other one eats a lot!! This one still doesn't show interest in food. So far he seems to just seek walking and staying under the chicken, and of course sleeping. I will try to feed him what you suggested... I saw that he doesn't have a problem with water and something in it if I hold him and...

    Just went outside and checked the little one. Still there! A lot more active today: more chirping and walking, also more eager to follow the chicken around and to run under her to get warm. Still falling asleep, but not as often I'm inclined to think. Still no eating, but will try more today...

    Please help with weak baby chicken!! He keeps falling asleep?

    That's a relief! The thing is that it doesn't sleep in the literal term. He doesn't just sit there and sleeps. He gets up, walks around and after a minute he just stops and rests his head on the ground for a few seconds or minutes (sometimes while standing up and sometimes sitting down). After...

    Please help with weak baby chicken!! He keeps falling asleep?

    Hmm... Ok... Will do. As far as bullying and accepting, his mother seems to accept it and he is not bullied. When she walks away with the other very healthy chick she always looks back after him and also tries to ”sit” on him to keep him warm. The other chicken isn't really interested in the...

    Please help with weak baby chicken!! He keeps falling asleep?

    Thanks for the answear!! We only have two chickens with a lot of space, and he has only one sibling... the rest didn't hatch. The other chicken is always wondering about... They have a lot of space. The thing that really concerns me is number 4. His behaviour. The way it seems to fall asleep...

    Please help with weak baby chicken!! He keeps falling asleep?

    Just yesterday the first egg hatched and out of it came a chick as strong as it can be. The next one, however, when I saw it, I got scared. He just stayed on his side breathing. We got it out scared that a chicken might have stepped on him or will be stepped on and put it in a nice warm box with...
