    Incubator Catastrophe = Stunted Chick?

    Hi! Any info would be appreciated. I had a batch of eggs--all around the 19 day mark--in an incubator. Most of the eggs were Barnevelder or Bielefelder, with five or six Deathlayers as well. Anyway, the electrical cord was inadvertently knocked out of the incubator and the temperature...

    Dwarf?

    My 10 new standard sized chicks shipped on 4/8 and now it's the 17th of April. Nine of the chicks (all hens) are growing like normal - wings getting longer, legs and necks taller, etc. But one little baby is not growing. She still looks like she's 2 days old! I've had to clean her vent almost...

    Runt of the brood

    I know I am probably worrying over nothing, but my flock is 4 weeks old and my little Golden Laced Wyandotte does not want to grow.

    Is She Healthy?

    Hello! I have been asked to adopt a red frizzle hen!! I am very excited. But does anyone know what causes stunted growth? She’s doing fine aside from size, but I want to make sure she won’t pass on any disease to my other chicksns

    Very small chick - stunted?

    I am raising 100 red-bro meat birds (3rd year doing it) and they are about 3 weeks old. I have one that is tiny. It runs over to the feeder to eat until it gets crowded out and then just sits under the heat lamp. It does eat and drink though. I might have expected it to die by now as I find I...
