Dangit. Our firstborn perished overnight. I have a very flat dish with not even a tablespoon of water in it. The little guy must’ve slipped and gotten too cold and died
We had one sickly chick that also passed last night, but we got to say goodbye to it first. My kid is gonna be soooo upset when she finds out the first born (the only one with black feet) is gone, too (I haven’t told her yet because she wouldn’t eat breakfast if she knew).
What do you do for watering the newly hatched? I thought I was being safe by putting almost no water in there and adding literal drops to it many many times a day. Is it just Darwinism?
