YES. not today but yesterday I was leaning over the incubator so much I could hardly walk that night. I had to keep lying down on the ground

check the incubator, lie on the ground, check the incubator, lie on the ground.

ok we have a problem. today is a public holiday so most of the shops are closed

what am I going to do. can you get vitamin b and e and the polyvisol stuff for chickens anywhere alse other then poultry stores?

 

[kathyinmo]

Oh yes .... We get ours at WalMart. They are people vitamins.

ETA: PolyViSol is a baby formula of vitamins. Be sure to not get the kind with iron ... just get the plain kind.

thank you so much. I have sent my perents out to get the stuff ( ok, ok they were going out anyway ) so hopefully they will be able to get it all

since the humidity is so high I think I will be able to take out the first wyandotte bantam and the white silkies. I have the brooder set up I just need a hotter light.
Also what kind of shop is walmart? everybody always says they go to walmart for EVERYTHING. we don't have any here.

Thanks for posting the pictures- I hope the vitamins help the little one! The idea of the neck rub sounds kind of nice. . . . .

A big ol "super center," .... they sell groceries at one side, and on the other side is like a department store, with clothing, dishware, household items, toiletries and makeup, electronics, sporting goods, shoes, etc ... even a pharmacy. They sell everything, practically! Even gardening and seasonal things ....

ETA .... Very cute picture there!

the little black one is walking better and lifting his head a little bit higher

I am looking for a name for him/her now.

I'm thinking it may not even be wry neck, just slow recovery from hatching possibly.
