    HELP! Is there anything I can do to help my 11 day old chick eat?

    I did end up losing that baby chick, such a shame. I ran right out and replaced it, with yet another tiny little white fluff ball that seems a lot more resilient, but after four days she died too. she had what seemed to be an umbilical cord still on her that was draining. I have 3 very...

    HELP! Is there anything I can do to help my 11 day old chick eat?

    I got this baby two days ago and already seemed to be in poor shape. The lady i got them from just had them in a large cold box, no heat, no food and a cap of water. they were tiny. She is a silkie chick, and i am assuming they are small in size since her sister is about the same size, but...

    i too bought two little yellow peepers in the tractor supply and didn't know what i was getting into. but i have never loved a duck so much as i do my boy Milton and my girl Ollie. i would recommend the pekin duck also. what wonderful creatures.
