Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

She laid the perfect egg yesterday with a hard shell. @Ponypoor brought us luck

Someone laid a tiny egg last night it was half the size of a normal egg, I would say it’s a Blanche egg.

Baby update

Well the poorly one is still with us, she was out and eating (pecking at feed) from the crumble I crushed up when I went out at 5:30am, she didn’t want any sugar water to drink though.

She was active but very unsteady on her legs. I will keep a very close eye on her today.

Good to know, I was thinking of using it underneath them but yes overtop would be easy to do. And safer for them. If I can’t find a brooder plate I will use the heating pad.

Right now I have my kiddos in a large animal crate housed in The office/feed room it’s warm in here.View attachment 3468162

How is the little one that you thought wasn't doing so well. Did she make it through the night?

Oooops, must have been writing as you were posting. I do hope she improves. The fact that she was interested in feed is good...but....she should be ravenous.

Aww poor little thing. Have you given her some vitamin supplements?

She is very unsteady, holding her wings away from her body (unless She is startled). She is very weak and is getting buffeted by the other crazy chicks. But I am glad she was out on her own pecking at feed.

She is not really interested in taking anything - she did take the sugar water on her own. I am going out again shortly to ensure she is still alive and interested in eating.
