Where is their mother? She should be able to call them in.

i got these eggs in the mail……………so no mother

 

[sourland]

Were the chicks in a pen that they escaped from? How old are they?

 

[izzyschickens]

yes, they were in a coop and they are about 5 weeks

If not found yet go out with flashlight and look in area last one was seen. Then work from there. If they are OK, then more than likely they are all together. Then keep them penned in area they can learn by site for a couple days before letting them out. Look into threads dealing with getting chicks to use coop as you appear to a failure to imprint issue.

Calm down, get a light and maybe even a net. Act calm, throw out treats, etc.

They might come back to roost at night even.
