Sounds strange, i'v never heard of anyone doing that. I'd take the wax off on the day of hatching as you don't want the chick to ingest it.

Sounds like a humidity issue, but with the eggs under a hen i don't know what to suggest.

The solution is simple, buy a low clalibre gun for insurence. Rodent guns and the like.

I'v never raised chicks before, as the ones i have i got fully grown. Hopefuly the rest will be alright, if it was a disease it dosn't look like it was contracted by the other chicks which is good.

yeah, but luckely the other 3 have been succefuly adopted by a hen during the night.

Chicky died during the night, but at only a week it's not suprising. Thanks for your help anyway.

It was walking around at lunch... but now it dosn't look like it's gonna survive

I have seperted the chick. I only got them this morning as i wasn't the one who hatched them but the feed they were on was medicated. It's realy weak and can't stand now .

Yeah i have kept it hydrated, they are on pine litter and their kept warm. Their on chick starter feed, but i don't know the exact feed... should i seperate the chick?
