Im trying to figure out what killed our 3-4 week old chicks. We had 10. 3 missing, 5 found dead and 2 still alive. The ones found dead were still in the coop. One had a small patch of feathers missing on its chest, looked like something bite it, but wasnt very deep... a few had, I think small...
I had 27 eggs in the incubator and on the 22nd day 2 hatched. It is now day 23 and nothing has happened with the others. Is that bad? Is there still hope for the others? Everthing went smoothly, I don't understand why only 2 hatched. When I candled them on day 17 there was atleast 11 alive. Any...
Thanks everyone for the good advise.

Our neighbor that lives up the road has a pack of dogs(about 6-8) that have been terrorizing our animals, they killed my duck, my favorite rooster and five other chickens. It started out just them coming down here and barking at our pet pot belly pig,attacking her and then they started messing...
I know she isn't pregnant. She is outside, is she just making a nest to keep warm? She isnt missing patches of fur or anything, I just noticed clumps of fur in her hutch when I went to feed her.Is this normal? Any advise is appreciated
