The first two silkie chicks came out healthy and strong, but the third one is weak and is unable to walk, eat, or drink properly. We have three broody silkie hens. The first two chicks were given to...

    Weak chick, won’t eat or drink, droopy wings....

    my local feed store got in a shipment of chicks. I know the owner and she told me that the shipping company lost the chicks, and so they arrived 24hrs late. Some had sadly died and some were very weak. I took two home that seemed fine. Then I noticed one of them wasn’t eat or drinking. Or really...

    One chick dead, Two chicks Sluggish-- two-month-old chicks

    I'm afraid I have bad news. Mustang, the buff brahma bantam chick, has passed away earlier today. The two remaining chicks, Noel and Nina (brahma and cochin), are weak, unstable, and seem very "groggy". I brought them inside and cleaned the coop. Nina's condition has been deteriorating while...

    I'll try and keep this short. Last week I got some day old OEG banties. A few have had pasty butt. 1 got very weak and weighed nothing. She died that night. I woke up to another dead chick who previously seemed fine. They've been active and eating/drinking fine as far as I've seen. A few of them...

    Early Hatching Egg & Weak Chick

    I'm going to preface this with my eggs were never suppose to hatch. My incubator isn't the best. It was an experiment since I live on a farm with someone who has too many eggs and wanted to see if I could hatch some. I never expected to have anything hatch. I don't even know anything about...

    This is my first time having chicks. I picked them up almost two weeks ago from a local feed store. They were flown in, and likely 1 day to 3 days old when I first brought them home. I have no idea how long they were in transit. One of the chicks is a buff orpington, it was the smallest when...

    Chick having trouble standing and walking. How do I help her?

    I am really new to chickens. We just got six chicks about a week ago! Five of them are doing great-- cheeping and eating and pooping and running around like nobody's business. I started noticing a few days ago that one of them (Janice) is not doing so hot however. She seemed way weaker and less...
