I have week old baby chicks and my miniature pincher hopped in the brooder with them. I thought they were fine till I found one dead, and another not moving an breathing heavy. This poor chickie seems to be breathing better and can move her legs and wings and has no visable injuries but only wants to lay down and will not eat or drink. She was very active before my dog jumped in there. I don't know what to do this is my first time with chicks and we don't have the money for a vet but I don't want to lose her. Any ideas or suggestions? I've tried spoon feeding her water and she actually laid on my chest for awhile and was very relaxed but she hasn't been moving a lot. I separated her from the other chicks BC I don't want them to hurt her more and jump on her but I feel like she misses them. Any advice ??
