Hello All -
I have 9 (10 day olds) given to me by my neighbor.
We have had all 9 in a nice size brooder box. Tonight when I got home, DH said that one of the peeps looked as though his mates had pulled it's new little tail feathers out.
Right away, I took the little peep out of the box and made a box of his/her own. I put neosporin on his bloody back side and put him/her in it's own box.
From everything I have read on this site, I believe I have followed everyone's advice as what to do and I thank you.
Because little peep is lonesome, I have it sitting with me while I type this question... Poor peeper!
Anyway... When can I let him back with the rest? Any advice will be greatly apprecited...
PS... now it's on my shoulder snuggled in my hair.
