I'm a new chick mum and I just got some week old Silkie chicks. I was a bit concerned because my chicks where laying with their necks stretched out and panting. So I moved the lamp a bit farther away they seem to be happier with this, no panting. However- they are still laying in odd positions and though they peep every once and awhile they seem to be rather quiet and sleepy. Not walking about. Is this normal? Nowhere really talks about how much baby chickens sleep- or what positions they sleep in! Does anyone know?
