[/IMG] This is my 3 1/2 month old. Male or female?

I hope it's a lavender. I have been wanting a lavender.

I can see that being the case. Any guess on the white with a little gray growing in? This is my for sure partridge baby.

I just want to figure out what color my silkies are/will be. This one particularly stumps me. I thought this one was white but now with dark splices I'm thinking splash?

At times the legs seem normal too like in this pic. Polish photo bombed there.

Here you can see its legs. Not horrible but not normal. It's the chick near the food. These are my 3 silkies.

I cut as much as I could of the bandaid out of its fluff. I couldn't get anything else around the legs to brace the legs because of those awkward 5 toes lol. It is getting around very well even though it's legs are still slightly splayed. It seems to be the boss in there sorta. Now though, 3 of...

This isn't my pic but this is what the poop looks like.

I have 5 baby chicks ranging from 4 days old to a week old. 3 of the chicks have a light brown diarrhea that's sticking to their butt. The youngest chick doesn't have it yet. I give save a chick and electrolytes in the water. I'm very new to chicks. What should I do. The advice online varies...

Thank you

The newspaper is under the 2 inches or so of pine shavings. It's only there at all to help with cleaning. Chicks aren't touching it.

They are on probiotic and electrolytes in the water. The save a chick has vitamins in it. That should be enough correct?

They aren't in a broader but in a guinea pig cage and I have a thermometer on top of the pine shavings. It's a plastic bottom cage with wire top and heat lamp over the wire. I have a reptile heat mat in the plastic tray that's on a thermostat set at 95. I have a layer of newspaper over that then...

There are no feathers yet. Just fluff.

I'm not putting it down. My cage is in a shed but it's a 28"×12" roughly guinea pig enclosure until my broader is built. I'm using newspaper over the plastic bottom for easy cleaning. On top, I have 2 or 3 inches of pine shavings. All of the chicks are cuddled up for the night and it's a bit too...

Thanks! Any other advice on how to care for this baby? I am already just learning how to care for baby chicks that are healthy. I am a slightly panicked mess about this baby. I am already head over heels in love with it. I have named it and gave it a meaningful name.

Thank you. I've named it and everything. They all have looney tunes names and this one is "Wylie". That coyote takes so many hits and keeps on going.

I'd appreciate any and all help. The lady is replacing the chicks and wants to put these down. I'm determined to try my best to save this one regardless.

I know the chick's survival chance is low as it is and I really want to try to save it. Will clipping fluff hinder my baby?

I am brand new to this forum and to chickens in general. I just received 4 baby chicks.1 2 day old black silkie, 1 day old white silkie and 2 5 day old polish. My white silkie and a few other white silkies from same batch which my friend got were still a bit wet when the lady boxed them up for...
