Here's a picture from just now 787940/width/200/height/400[/IMG] She's in the middle of the pig pile. Crossing fingers all continues to go well. Thanks again for walking me through this

Here is the video from earlier in the day. You can hear the anxiety in my voice. But all went well. The big chicks were so overwhelmed and interested in their new surroundings they didn't pay any mind to the baby chick. We stayed out there for about 3 hours and they loved it. Then the sky...

Yes I will try rearranging and putting her with the rest. So far she's right in the mix. No issues yet. My Swedish is 4 weeks today and yes I think I see pink wattles. And my barred rock is most likely a cockerel and my light brahma is displaying very cockerel behavior. I'm also slightly...

Off topic but Dang! I hope it's the lighting but I doubt it

Here is a quick pic of her right in the mix for now Hmm now that I'm outside I think my Swedish flower is showing a little pink in the comb! Drats!

All is going well so far. All chicks are outside in the run loving life. Sick chick is right in there eating scratching exploring. All others are too distracted to pay her any mind so far. She's even running and flapping her wings trying to get lift. I notice that she has also preened all her...

Hmmm, that would make my day easier. I can work inside the coop and keep an eye on them. I could even put the MHP out there if they need to hide or warm up. I will put other hidey places as well. The run is 8x14 so plenty of room to run and get away and hide if needed. I think that is what...

ok, Ill do my best. Im off today but I have to run one errand, TSC for more shaving running low and boy these chicks are getting stinky in my house. I also have to put some finishing touches on the coop as I want to move them out by the weekend. Is there any harm in bringing the chicks out to...

@TalkALittle Thank you, this sounds like a good plan and makes perfect sense. Hmm, I think Ill have to drag up another big dog crate from the basement as the sick chick is just in a rather small cardboard box the big girls will kill each other in there. Unless I can do it within a few hours...

So the chick is still doing well so tonight right when the other chicks were settling into sleep for the night I took the smallest chick and put it in with the "sick" chick for company. But that chick would not settle down. It was peeping loudly and was very stressed out so I put it back with...

@Pats Poultry Thank you Yes, I hope this thread will help others if they find themselves in a similar situation.

@AngelaC did your chick make it? I looked for a thread but it looks like you havent posted one.

Yes my "Boston" is showing again. I heard it too but posted anyway. Thank you aart for all your help. I don't think anyone else has seen this thread I'm just so happy you are helping me because I have no idea what I'm doing being a first time chicken keeper.

Or maybe I could take the smallest chick and put her in with the baby?

she just started peeping really loudly and the other girls are trilling to her. Maybe I should put her with the flock?

This morning when I came to check on all the chicks, this little lady was walking around with very good balance on top of her mamma heating pad. Her neck is still sometimes bent to the left. I haven't seen her fall over in about 48 hours. I put some mesh over her box in case she may decide to...

Yes, what aart said. Read through thread and start another thread because your situation may be different than mine and other folks may have better ideas how to help you. Good luck and keep us posted. If you want you can link your thread here too so we can try to help you.

Thank you Im doing my best. She looked perky and alert this morning. I have been giving her dribbles of nutridrench every three hours or so. Last night she was up and about eating and drinking on her own. I put a drop of nutridrench in her water. She's peeping more actively now. Not out...

I am reluctant to post this because I cannot stand to listen to the way Im talking but its for the benefit of the chick so Ill deal with the embarrassment. UGH! why am I babbling in this video. Anyway, I gave her a little more nutridrench. She seems a bit better. Not rolling around. She ate...

She is right beside them so she can hear them but not see them. They are so big compared to her and she cannot get out of the way. She spends most of her time snuggled under the MHP. If she starts to move better maybe Ill take the smallest (buff rock) and put them together but Im also worried...
