Hi everyone - first post!
I have 4 one week old polish chicks and one is exhibiting unusual behaviour.
At about 5 days old she began incessant cheeping. There’s clearly something wrong but I’ve checked all the usual variables and everything seems fine. She eats and poos but weighs about a third less than the others.
Today I decided to try her with a teeny bit of scrambled egg which she devoured like I’d been starving her - and she finally stopped cheeping!
obviously I know she can’t live on scrambled egg so I wondered if anyone has come across this before and has any suggestions? Thank you!
