4 and half week old barred rock pullets. Was being bullied and not allowed to eat. Yesterday had some wet poop, is more solid today. Cleaning brooder 2 times a day, fresh water 5 times. Lots of gently stroke to check crop. Was sour smell in brooder, is better. Am only feed chick starter. If add any supplement, poop goes wet. Chicks seem still get cold easy. Have 250 watt heat lamp that they bask under after eat for about 25 to 40 minutes, then go to other end of brooder to sleep. No heat at night.
