Dead chick with scabby sore?

Ohhh the front is wire. We just have it covered in the night so its warm and no cold breeze flowing in. We are in winter here.

The big coop has my pullets in it. Thats why they are in this one for now.

Personally, I would not shut the lid. Can you make a wire top to go on the box?

Also, if these are your first chicks, if you have the coop ready, you can brood them in the coop. That's what I did with my first babies, they had plenty of room, they learned where "home" was and if the weather is nice, they can go outside in the run during the day (if it's secured well).

Call and if you don’t get a refund, I personally would never buy chicks from there again
