    need advice on new baby chicks

    Woke up this morning and her crop was not full. I think she just over ate since she was so hungry after everything this poor little one has been through. Now she just needs to grow! Thank you for your advice.

    need advice on new baby chicks

    I do have them on medicated feed since they have no been vaccinated for cocci. Should I switch? Should I take their food away at night or separate her and take it away from her? Do I still feed her mesh that I make her? Doesn't Poly V sol take care of the Thiamine? So is full crop a bad thing? I...

    need advice on new baby chicks

    I saw this at tractor supply but it didn't seem to have Vit B1 ( I don't think) but I think I will get it anyway. I heard that VIt E is also good and it has it. This chick has such a will to live. I can't believe how strong she is even with not eating a whole lot. She wants to do everything...

    need advice on new baby chicks

    Thanks for the info. I read it I tried to stretching in case her tendon was dislocated. She is drinking water and eating a little but wants to sleep mostly.

    need advice on new baby chicks

    I have pine shaving with paper towels on top (so they will peck at food not shavings) and I made a water bottle with the nipples and I also have a chick water bowl (the ones you buy at tractor supply for baby chicks) and I have a very small cat dish for their food. I have a little card board box...

    need advice on new baby chicks

    Ok I am beginning to think I am not cut out for raising chickens. This is to hard for me! Ok I am starting a new thread for advice. To update, my first flock I got from a backyard breeder that I thought vaccinated but lost 3 out of 4 (two to Marek's and one to Ovarian Ca) My last hen went broody...
