update: Okay so this morning I lost one of my little baby silkies. I did all I could. I kept giving her water and I did what I thought I could do to make her comfortable. now my other baby silkie also is dying. I have been giving her water, but she can't hardly hold up her head. she's on her way...
As some of you know, I ordered my lil chickies from Murry McMurry and they got here this morning. I got the call from the Post office at 8am! I was soooo happy but nervous as I was scared they wouldn't be alive or something after reading some of your experiances! I got there and heard them...
I've seen a lot on this. Is it best to start them off from little ones on it? Where do I buy one? Do they sell them at TSC or would I have to order it online?
Thanks
