    Baby chick panting/lethargic

    It's more of a panting than a hiccup now? She can barely hold her head up, occasionally she'll perk up a little but definitely not improving enough for me to not worry. I don't think she was jostled around much..I got her from a small local hatchery.

    She was lively when I got her, not as energetic as the rest but I just thought maybe she was tired from hatching. I've been feeding her egg yolk. The other 4 are all happy eating their chick starter, pooping and drinking on their own. I have her separated and I've been keeping her warm.

    She's still alive, no improvement though... Not sure what else to do

    She popped a few times but they were very watery. She perks up a little..but she's not eating.

    I have a 2 day old who isn't looking too good... Already gave her sugar water. It looks like she has hiccups and she's laying out on the ground. The brooder isn't too hot and theres room to jump around. Everyone else is eating and happy. Thoughts?

    Issues with heat regulation..

    Right now I have a 15 watt because every other bulb got too hot... We added a computer fan so hopefully that helps

    Issues with heat regulation..

    This is my first time with a homemade incubator, (styrofoam cooler), I am wondering if there's a specific watt bulb that would help with a more constant temp?
