    Silkies barely eating possibly underweight

    One of them also pants a lot, I’m worried it might be worms or some sort of respitory infection. I know she’s not overheating because the temps are quite mild here and the other one seems fine

    Silkies barely eating possibly underweight

    I have 2 nine week old silkie chicks that are barely eating the past few days. They also seem underweight when I pick them up I can feel a bone protruding underneath (breast bone? Not sure) they do seem curious and peck at things outside but not really interested in any food I give them. I’ve...

    Day 20 silkie eggs - no pips

    I have 3 shipped USA silkie eggs in my incubator, it has been 12 hours since the beginning of day 20 and still nothing. No movement or pipping.

    Day 5 - possible dead embryos??

    Got these shipped Silkie eggs and 2 are looking questionable. One very faint veins and the embryo is moving around as I turn the egg but doesn’t move on it’s own. If you look closely you can still see veins but I think it is either dying or passed very recently as the veins don’t look anything...
