Hi

Glad you could join the flock! Just sorry that it's not under better circumstances. I would not feed raw egg but would cook it into scrambled egg for the chick. Is your chick very sick? Do you think it has wet or dry pox? Could you post some pics of your chick? Is it not eating normal chick crumb?

Dry pox where only the head, comb, and/or face are involved is not as serious as wet pox which involves the mouth, mucus membranes, and airway. Wet pox is almost always fatal.
