Hello. We fortunately caught our brooder fire this morning before the 8 chicks and 3 ducks in it were engulfed in flames. Everyone is in the bathroom now and waiting for the heater and shower to raise the temp to 80 degrees. Everyone is eating and drinking at will. The ducks are enjoying swimming in the cereal bowls of water.
What i need advice on is this: there seems to be some laboured breathing with the ducks. Any advice to help them? Also, one chick seems to be missing a toe on each foot...charred? What could i do for her besides watch? If chicks look like they have sunburned skin under feathers, what should been done for them?
Thanks,
Jenn
