I made it official.Makeshift lab!
I’m still here to learn and not just give people a hard time, so I’ll ask this. I’ve hatched a lot of chicks that look like this that were not mottled. What has you convinced that these freshly hatched ones will be mottled?In the time it took me to take and offload these pics from the camera, a second baby hatched from one of Blackies eggs, and it's Mottled too! I can't believe it!
First baby:

sorry I can't remember. when did it hatch again? hmmmm we had one that was like that and I had some nutridrench so I mixed some of that, water and brown sugar. my daughter used a medicine dropper and put it on its beak a bit at a time so it drank it that way. We did it a few times just a bit at a time over about an hour or so and she kept it bundled in her hands with a blanket and heat pad to keep it warm. After about an hour or so it perked up quite a bit. but I think she did a few drops every 10-15 min to get it into it. Good luck!The chick still wont walk and has it eyes closed, we've tried honey, sugar, electrolytes, egg yolk, I just dont know what to do. Chirps a whole ton though.
I LOVE the one in the 6th picture!!!!!!! it is just so cute!Here are the chicks! We’ve got 8 in total.
They’re just over a week old now.
All of the siblings have a picture together, except for the chick in the last picture, which is actually the NNs’ sibling, but it didn’t get the gene for the naked neck.
We got 1 red bantam Cochin cross, 3 NNs, and 4 EEs.
