Well of course that worked. I'll try one last time. Had to cull a chicken. Used broomstick method. Read and read about it. Watched a few Youtube videos. Think I still did it wrong. Chicken looked to be gasping for air a few times. Only lasted a minute or so. Did I crush windpipe instead of...

So frustrating!

Poor baby! So glad shell make it!! Sand still doing great for us.

Anyone know of one? Need detailed step by step instructions.

Check out the-chicken-chick dot com. Thats where I got the idea. Or maybe its dot blogspot dot com.

The bagged sand I buy at home depot says silica free. Thats all I know. Good luck!

Wow! Ive had sand in my brooder.from week one and have never had that problem and I dont scoop daily. Maybe you have too many chicks in one brooder for sand? Maybe since there are so many chicks one scoop a day isnt enough? I sure hope your little one makes it!!

Good luck! We cant free range due to owls and hawks. :(

You wont regret it. Do be sure chicks are at least a week old tho.

Its great! Ill send you a msg.

My chicks did the same thing! They got loud and happy and dust bathed for several minutes. Was fun to watch! For others reading this, I saw what was going on and took the food and water out til they calmed down. Since then they take occasional dust baths fora few seconds, but havent gone crazy...

Im wondering why your chicks eat too much sand. Think its the breed? I have Stars and Rhode Island. Think its the age? I used paper towels on puppy pads til they were a week old. Think its the forage training? I put some feed on the paper towels to help them learn to peck it off the ground. Now...

Oh man. Yeah. No good.

Actually was planning on putting feeder in bucket with lid at night. Any reason why this wont work?

As they should. Its grit.
