    Coccidiosis in babies.

    I will have a pair of scales in the morning so I will be able to give you an exact weight on him, instead of trying to judge. I am not sure of his age, he was incubated but with a hatch close together, I normally right it down so he could be younger.

    Coccidiosis in babies.

    Oh, got you! That would make sense. No not at the moment, I'm not one to weigh myself and I am out of town so anyone I can borrow from isnt around right now. And I have never heard of a hanging luggage scale, mainly because I dont travel that much. I thought guesstimation was a possibly but...

    Hey guys, I'm looking to get people knowledge of administering Cocciprol via syringe to my sick boy who is about 3 months old, if I had to guess (maybe 4). Does anybody know the safe dose for administering a single chick by needless syringe? I have separated him, tick! I have cleaned and...

    Not sure what to make of this one!

    Hi Eggcessive, Mum kicked him out of the coop yesterday so I have removed him and put him inside. I did clean it up with Saline water last night. Should I be doing this everyday or every couple days?

    Hi 2 Acres, Im not 100% sure, but looking at it I don't feel like it looks like a cut but maybe it could be 🤷‍♀️

    Not sure what to make of this one!

    Hey guys, I am looking for information or ideas on what could be wrong with this little baby. Hatched I believe yesterday or the day before with mum in the coop. Today is the first day out of the coop and the first time seeing them! Mumma has this chick and another chick who seems to be...

    Chicks that wont eat chick starter!

    Hey guys, Unfortunately this little guy did not pull through. All went OK for a day or two and then it went down hill from there. The kids named him Echo, so Echo passed on Tuesday, exactly a week after he hatched 😪. Being the first chick I have tended to and then lost - It was hard to...

    Chicks that wont eat chick starter!

    Hi Kattabelly, Aw, I'm sorry to hear that! How do you think he contracted Omphalitis? I'm not 100% sure this is what my guy has but it absolutely could be a possibility after reading the article Deb sent to me. I wonder if this is why this little guy is so small because he wasn't able to...

    Chicks that wont eat chick starter!

    Hi 2ndTink, I feel this one is very similar, just doesn't have the urge to eat, would prefer to just lay under the heat and stay there all day. Upon great advice from the chicken fam, I have given him some starter in mash form but also sprinkled some on the floor so he can decide, if any...

    Thanks Olivia11. He is definitely taking his time to get going, but I know that feeling 😅. I did scatter some chick started in the bottom of his box and I have a shallow dish with moistened starter so he can make his own choices. Yes, I believe this is just a waiting game at this point.

    Chicks that wont eat chick starter!

    @Debbie292d, that was a very informative read! Thank you! I feel it could be mushy chick syndrome in the way that he was off food and he has the need to be warm CONSTANTLY! But his navel and everything else looks to be OK. In saying that sometimes I notice what looks like a clear bubble next to...

    Chicks that wont eat chick starter!

    In all honesty, I have never noticed small development waste in any of the chicks I have hatched, so it could of been, but it also could have been something else by the smell of it, it wasn't pleasant - which is what made me think it might have been a bacterial issue. Is it common for a single...

    Chicks that wont eat chick starter!

    Hi SourRoses, Thank you for your advice! I would absolutely bank on it being SOMETHING, this tiny chick was one of 5 in the clutch of eggs. Mum sat on them until she hatched 3, then she abandoned the eggs so I placed them in the incubator, both the 3 she is raising and the 1 other that...

    Oh 😅 Nice! We're down in Aus. So we might get ours from a different place but a quick google should solve that! I feel good about his progression but you just never know when/if its going turn, so fingers and toes crossed! Thank you so much for your input!
