Not too good. But not bad either. He decided this morning that he was not going to eat Starter Feed no matter what I tried. So, I did the next best thing and did a 50/50 starter/applesauce mixture (with added water) and he ate a little bit of that.

Hopeful that it pulls through. Do you have any Poultry vitamins? Sometimes they just fail to thrive. Best wishes..

I was wondering how soon after it hatched did you begin to force feed the chick?..Chicks that are newly hatched are still absorbing the yolk in their bellys so don't need feed until that's done. That's why Chicks can be shipped.
Possibly it aspirated fluid and feed into its lungs.
I hope it makes it Kayla...:hugs

Didn’t start feeding it until at least 36 hours after hatch. Maybe 48 hours after hatch. It’s really weak today, it’s not looking too good. :hugs
