    PLEASE HELP!!!! Baby chick isnt feathering!

    Sounds like the humidity gave all the chicks birth defects. Although they are not as severe to cause them to die, it seems like that they have brain damage which may be causing the head-thrashing, lack of interest, and confusion. Also, make sure Ashi can eat her food. If she has problems with...

    Seperating Chicks?

    I put them back together today and they all swarmmed around the two "chicks" who were inside for the night. The "Top Rooster" at this point , started to attack the pullet, "Scooter" (who we removed because she was being attacked). "Kashi" (the pullet keeping Scooter company) had bonded even more...

    Can I give baby chicks ants or worms?

    First of all... I agree with Sparrow. All ants contain acid...and some can make them sick. Also, with live food, I give my chicks "Chick Grit" to help them digest it. I give worms to my chicks...but their favorite snacks are small crickets. I buy the smallest crickets I can from the pet store...

    Limping chicken :(

    I would check his legs and thighs very closely. Even if there is no visable damage on the outside, he could have sprained or pulled muscles or tendons in his legs. If his legs seem sore (like if he cries and fusses when you touch it) Put him away from other roosters so they dont further hurt...

    Bathtime?

    I gave my 5-week-old chicks some yogurt this morning, and they ate it like there was no tomarrow! But in the process, everyone got sticky, and now their feathers are hard and covered in pine shavings! Is it safe to give them a bath? If so, how do I go about doing it on something so small? (They...
