if it's only been a couple days, just leave them. This is when they are most sensitive. I know it's hard to wait but you just have to have patience What is your temperature and humidity at?

Speak for yourself, I have raised hundreds of them with the way I have just outlined. Which is 95% identical to the way you do it if you actually read all the posts. So don't be so quick to publicly post on a thread that everyone who has posted advice is no good. Especially when there is a new person involved who only wants to learn. Share your experiences, please, but try to refrain from bringing other posters down - you are not the only person here with experience, after all.oh my doesnt seem like very much good advice on buttons is all i can say :/
NO pine shavings... That causes respiratory issues. Like asthma. This is bad for newborns. And can shorten their lives. Use compacted wood bedding or anything but pine, cedar and newspaperWell, you should keep them in a brooder(draft free box) with quail starter feed, a waterer, with marbles in the water so the chicks can still get water but can't drown, and some clean bedding(pine works best) If you don't want to use a heat lamp, the only thing i can think of is using a small room heater that can keep the brooder at about 98 degree's without burning. Also the chicks NEED light to see their food, and water, and eachother, so you will need some sort of bright light source on them. I say just use a heat lamp.They need the heat source for about 4-5 weeks or until they are fully feathered. 60-75 watts would be the best option. Just make sure the floor is 98 degrees.
