Thanks Wyorp Rock for your help in trying to save one of our little Wyandottes. Unfortunately, we went out to give her the straight nutridrench as you suggested, and she had passed. Apparently, because she was so weak and listless, she was piled on under the heat panel and suffocated. I put two...

No, she's not pooping (at least not that I know of since she's under the heat panel with the rest of the flock. The heat panel is 92-97 degrees. We are giving her the egg/electrolyte mix about every hour. This last feeding she did look like she was swallowing it, but she doesn't keep her eyes...

Thanks for taking your time to help us with our baby Wyandotte. So feed her the egg/electrolyte mix every hour? Does the egg mix go bad sitting out?

How often would you feed the egg yoke/electrolyte mix?

CMC, thank you so much for this advice. We mixed the raw egg and electrolyte and water, and fed her on the side of her beak. She immediately started taking it in, and we ended up giving her .7 mL and we're letting her rest now. We'll give her more in a bit. The heat is now 91 under the plate. Is...

The cool side of the brooder is 72. That would give them a warm spot (93 under the panel) and cool spot. Is 72 OK for the cool spot?

Cooked egg yoke? We'll try that, since I don't want her getting too weak from not eating or drinking.

So it's 93 under the panel. Should we get rid of the heat lamp?

So at 5 days the temp should be ................?

Mixed up new electrolyte and dipped her beak. How often should I do this?

?

We mixed up some new electrolyte and dipped her beak. She drank a little, but when put down she just stands there. How often should we dip her beak?

YES, I've tried to give her nutri-drench, but she doesn't want to drink. I've got the Sav-A-Chick electrolyte

What temperature should they have at 5 days old?

I was just following the suggestions on BYC and what I'd read other places, which suggested 95-105. The Wyandotte is listless, not eating OR drinking. She's under the panel right now. Is there any "pick-me-up" I can give her? All the rest of the chicks are active, perching, eating and drinking.

We've adjusted the heat lamp up so that it's about 96 directly under the lamp. Every article we read says have the temp at 105-95 degrees. They seem to like the warmth under the lamp, because after they gorge on food and water, they go over under the lamp and just pancake out asleep.

Here's another picture

Here's the setup

Yes we do, but we have given them plenty of room to get to the part of the brooder that is about 80 degrees.

Is there a safe way to clean pasty butt, like coconut oil?
