    Dropped baby chick

    My oldest (6) took it better than I expected but this was her first time witnessing what death is. We’ve talked about it and she’s had relatives die when she was much younger. Youngest (2, almost 3) is still sleeping. It’s 8:17 AM here. She will definitely notice and will be sad but will soon...

    Dropped baby chick

    It was so strange. It landed so softly. It fluttered most of the way down so I thought it was fine. The behavior worried me after. He was my biggest one too. All the encouraging things I read really had me hopeful. I really think it was a freak accident. It was such a minor drop compared to all...

    Thank you. I wouldn’t be near as distraught if it hadn’t have been my fault. I tried so hard to be careful and still screwed up and that poor baby paid the price.

    Should I put the chick in a separate box under the light? It keeps falling asleep close to the water. Even though it’s a water can for baby chicks, I still worry. It’s not eating or drinking anyway. I plan on staying by it all night. Poor thing keeps getting bumped around by the others. Just...

    Dropped baby chick

    Thank you so much. I’ve helped stunned wild birds but I’ve always seen them bounce back in 10-30 minutes. It’s been an hour 😞 I will keep you updated. I’m sorry if I take a while. Between packing for moving, kids and now this. I’m a mess right now.

    Dropped baby chick

    This is my first time raising chickens. I have 4 silkies that are 6 days old. They had some pasty butt but it was seeming to stop. I’m as checking them all one last time for the night and one leaped out of my hands. I stay on the floor with them but was on my knees and it jumped and fell about 2...
