Once I realized the toes had frostbite, I debated culling the surviving chick, but just couldn't. This bird has such a strong will to live and the disability doesn't seem to slow it down at all. The silkie mix & a serama chick were given to a friend where they now live "the good life." They will be spoiled house pets until spring (possibly longer since their son has grown very attached.)
