I recently just got my chicks in the mail one was dead on arrival which they said might happen but now 3 more have died the one thats left is all by herself she is super alert and spunky so im praying shell make it but im wondering if she will be ok alone until i can get another shipment sent to me next week anyone have anything like this ever happen to them? Im so sad and feel so bad for her and hope she will be ok on her own for a while thought?????

Awe, so sorry. I'd def try to get her some friends. My only concern is if the other died from a bacteria/virus, it would transfer to any new chicks you put in the area. I'd do some searches on this. Hopefully a seasoned veteran will chime in on this. GL!!

If they only shipped 5, the chicks may have gotten too chilled. A lot of hatcheries will not ship such small numbers of birds for that reason.
