Around 12:30 our sweet baby took his last breath. He died being warm and loved. I feel like we did what we could. He was the last of 14 who died. Large lessons learned about late season hatchlings and cold weather here in eastern KY. Next year, we will be better prepared. Thank you to... -

I've tried and tried. He will not take it on his own. I've given him tiny drips of water out of the syringe. I've but him in a little warm water. He will barely hold his head up. I've snuggled him. He peeps so softly. I feel he's giving up guys. He cannot walk now. -

He makes an effort to take crumble from the spoon that I added water to. He will drink some but he's not seeking it out today for himself. I'm gonna try to get him some tomorrow. He is 10 days old. -
