    How to get a pea chick to eat and drink?

    The yolk it is hatched with will sustain it for two or three days but it should have water to keep it from dehydrating. If it is bound and can't access water then use a gavage needle and crop feed it 0.10ml of water periodically during the day. Vitamins and electrolytes is always a good idea...

    Medicated food?

    30% is too high for hatchlings, normal 20ish % non medicated is good until it is put on the ground where it can run off the excess protein. All medicated feed does is starve cocci of vitamin D and A in an effort to stunt the growth of the protozoan, which also withholds the needed vitamins from...

    How to get a pea chick to eat and drink?

    Splay needs to be fixed as soon as the chick comes out of the hatcher, every day after that diminishes the chance of correcting the problem. You can wrap the chick like a burrito, put it in a cup, tape the legs and feet under a cardboard, all will work if done asap.

    How to get a pea chick to eat and drink?

    Do what you are doing, it should catch on when it gets hungry. Don't rush out to buy a bag of gamebird feed yet, if you can't fix the splay the feed will go to your turkeys.

    Will a egg that gets wet....still hatch?

    One of my special free-ranging hens set a nest in what I thought would be a very protected place, until a gully washer came through and flooded everything. I went out and found her four eggs submerged and her standing over them. I quickly found some hay and elevated her nest out of the water...

    Squirrels are eating my Peafowls's food. Can I put chili powder in their food to deter the squirrels?

    Chickens do not eat because they need to, they eat as a habit. Compared to peas who only eat to maintain themselves, chickens are a huge waste of feed.

    Small peahen

    Safeguard can be bought at most any farm store, called Safeguard for Goats. Soak pieces of bread and toss to the birds. They need about two ml per bird and do this at least twice in ten days.

    Identifying peas

    Purple cock, Spalding BS cock, and likely Cameo hen. The last one is probably IB but the pic quality is poor, not sure why someone would send pics four months out of date, surely they look much different now.

    I suspect both parents are Purple and so is the chick.

    Any guesses as to what color this peachick is/will be?

    Would you happen to know what color the Black Shoulder Silver Pied hen is? It looks like either Cameo or Peach but could be something else. I doubt the White cock is the daddy but not impossible.

    Peahen with possible broken leg

    I have had broken lower legs on three birds and had the vet cast the first one and I did the other two. The thigh is a whole different ball of string that I would not attempt. Birds bones will heal in a short time, two to three weeks and the cast can come off. The problem with immobilizing a...
