[Mountain Granny]

Well, Brainy didn't make it... one minute he was fine and the next he was gone... :~(

So sorry !!
But at least you didn't have to make that decision. You were doing what you could and trying to get advice.

I know this was 2013 but anybody have a way to solve this? We have the same thing going on with a chick and he/she jumps randomly at the sides of the tub and peeps loudly

I know this was 6 years ago, but I'm sorry for your loss. I have chickens of my own and I know what it feels like to lose one, especially a baby. I hope that you're doing better today and have chickens that are happy. I've had way worse happen to me when it came to farm animals.

Sorry to hear that. I looked this up as I had a chick born with similar issue. Never before has it happened! Encephaly?

Just so you know, the post you're replying to is from 2013 and that poster hasn't been online since later that year.

The condition is called exencephaly.
