I think that my chicks may have botulism. I don't know how they would get it, seeing as they have only lived inside my room, which is where they were hatched. But, if they do have it, am I at risk?
So here are my 12 chicks at day seven <3 I am giving 3 away to a family friend, not sure which to give up yet though, seeing *** how I am so attached!!
Names
