2 Nine week old chicks? Help? **PICS

[penkwolf]

Thanks everyone! Yeah one is definetly a boy, but the little one i thought was a boy? but hasnt grown and it very timid and quiet compared to the other

could the little one be one of those "failure to thrive" cases? Have you had any medical problems with him? Just based on size comparison and his posture compared to the other,

 

[penkwolf]

nope no illnesses, s/he seems fine in herself, but seems to be dead laid back/lazy, and is not growing at all. must be 10 weeks old now

The little one died this morning

dont know what was up with it though...

sorry for your loss

At least you still have the big strong one, it might have just been bad genes or something.
