Thank you for the information. Unfortunately, we will not know with this chick because it died yesterday. It was a late hatch and it slept most of the time though it did eat and drink a little. Maybe next time.

Thank you for that website! I just had a georgia giant chick just do that. Now I am heading to the store. We had put them on rosin paper, but I have switched to a bath towel.
