2014 Hatchery Chick Orders

[kenzier093]

Yes I talked to my hatchery today and they said to do that. Put their good out on paper plates too. Basically u gotta make she she gets that sugar water and food into her. She's just depleted

well I tried. She died last night and then another one of the same breed died this morning and now another one of the same breed is weak and won't eat, but did drink a little. I don't know what to do. I don't know why it is just the Faverolles that are dieing

Oh no, I'm so sorry. I wonder what's going on.

Maybe, by some miracle, she will be running around again, but I don't think this third one will make it through the night. I am still giving them sugar water yet, but I don't think it is helping though. Yesterday they were all running around and were fine, but some aren't doing so good now. I think it might have to do with the stress of the shipping.

Awwwwww the stress of travel I bet

Sorry to hear that. One of mine aren't doing so well either. Tried getting her to drink, but she just spits it back up. Maybe its because baby faverolles are more fragile than the other breeds?

Omg I have a couple coming too

2 of my 3 faverolles didn't make it through shipping. The one that did is the tiniest chick we have but very happy and energetic now.

Sorry for your chick loss.

 

[kenzier093]

She is still alive (thank god). Good luck with your chicks that are coming! I know I'm not having good luck with mine.

I think I will get some when my local tsc gets some in a couple days.

Have you ever ordered from Meyer Hatchery? I am thinking of ordering from them next year since they are only one state over from us instead of four. I think the long trip had to do with them dieing.
