Thank you for the advice! There is only 3 chicks. Ill fill a hot water bottle and remember a towel as well.

Alright thanks, will remember a towel!

Hello there! Ive had my baby chicks for 3 weeks now and its time for them to move to a bigger coop, in another city. As the city is more than an hour away in car, I fear they are going to get too cold or hungry. Im not the one driving, but the new owner is! Can they keep it up during an hour +...

Didnt know it was that easy for them to get a leg injury, Ill change it out with paper towels! :D

Alright, Ill change it out with paper towels to be sure! Thanks!

Thank you! I thought the newspaper would make them slip as well, but it doesnt seem to. It may be the specific type of paper i use!

Thank you for the information! The newspaper havent been an issue yet, and doesnt seem to make them slip! Theyre not on any supplements right now; should they be?

Yes, thank you for telling me. Ive immedietly switched it out with newspaper after seeing your post.

I incubated them. Theyre kept in a brooder box, and I use a heating plate as their warmth. Their bedding is cedar shaving and they eat starter feed.

Hello Im currently raising three baby chicks, theyre only a few days old. Ive noticed two of them sneeze a lot, shake, and have watery poop (ive added a picture of it). Otherwise, they eat, drink and play like they should. What could be the cause and what should I do?

Glad to hear that its normal:lol: and thank you for your help! It should be fun to have a talkative older chick.

Thank you for the help, I hope it settles down!

They all pretty much engage and play with each other, so I dont think its lonely. It may feel alone when its the only one awake whilst the other two are sleeping

Hello there Im currently raising 3 newly hatched baby chicks. Theyre all eating and drinking normally, and seem very active. One of them is specifically loud though, even though the other two are sleeping, it keeps walking around in the coop while chirping. There is food and clean water 24/7...

Yes, theyve both hatched now, day 21+22:D

Both hatched now! :celebrate

Its a Brahma chicken! And great, Ill leave it in :D How about the chick that has peeeped but hasnt moved or made any progress since? Im sure I shouldnt intervene, but how long can they just stay in the egg after having made a crack, without making any progress?

Yes! About 6 hours ago. It isnt fully dried off, but it is pretty dry.

True! First just hatched after I made the post. One has mad a little crack in the egg, but I dont see or hear anything else from it. Should I just leave the hatched chick in there?

First chick just hatched! :celebrate
