14 days old 2 of my chicks are having different issues

Chicks who haven’t had egg may not like it, but I would make it into a mash and try to get her interested. All it takes is to chop up a scrambled egg and toss it out, and one brave chick to try some. They quickly learn that it tastes good, but it may take a couple of times to try it. You can also try some liquid yolk, since a lot of the vitamins are in there. She only needs a small amount. If she doesn’t eat it, her chickens feed has some.

2 of the chicks ended up eating some. But not the ones i needed to of course. But i will try again tomorrow.
 
Don't worry about it. Even professional hatchery's might have some problems. I bought some chicks two weeks ago too from a hatchery and already 4 are dead, so it's fine. The foot problem is normal and if it goes even more problematic I would get a stick thing to help it walk, like crutches, but for now it is good. I don't know about the head though... I've never had that, so I have no idea.

Huh? I thought chickens liked eggs... I recommend giving boiled egg yolk for the first week every day, but that's already over... But really, for the first week my chickens went crazy for the eggs! Well, maybe your chicks are different from mine.

I may try raw yolk. I had a few chicks born with some yolk attached and they others ate it ‍♀️
