1 single lonely chick

[nhgrl8]

So I took in a baby wry neck chick , No-No is now 3 weeks old and can finally feed herself and drink on her own . However she has gotten way to large for her little cage she was in as a baby that I had her in . I have no choice but to move her to the larger cage but she looks so tiny and alone in it . I have eggs ready to hatch next week . If I put up a divider will it be ok ? Plenty space to put a wire divider up for new babies ? She looks so tiny all by herself in the big girl brooder .

I think if you separate the little ones a few days you may be able to remove the separater and keep them together. Depends on her behavior.

if you are really worried about her being lonely I would go to your local TSC of similar store . They may still have extras you can take home

I'd provide a mirror for 'company'. A divider would be fine.

I say separate as they are Keets not chickens that areDo you to hatch.

How fortunate. Now they both have buddies.

Then there were 2 . Probably 2 roosters but that’s the way it goes

Yay it makes me happy that they are not alone anymore! They will probably be buddies.
