hard hatch, eyes closed?

[firedove]

Newly dubbed "Bounce" she is doing a lot better but now she never wants me to put her down

Bounce is drinking and I think she is eating since she certainly has plenty of energy! She is named Bounce because she will jump off of anything and bounce. I keep trying to discourage that behavior but she is just reckless. She is super sweet though and loves to sleep in my hand. I wasn't going to keep any of this hatch but I've become very attached to Bounce and if wing feather sexing really works, Bounce is indeed a she!

Great news! So glad she has "Bounced" back!

LOL. I'm still not convinced she is 100% but I'm keeping an eye on her. She is keeping up with the others growth-wise and is very active but just a bit ago she pooped and there was a little bit of blood in it, do you think I should be worried?

 

[Schultz]

That is something I don't know anything about, I know there is a thread on here that talks about poo, you may try searching it or hopefully someone else will chime in

I used to have a link to the poo page. I know that sometimes older chickens will have some blood in poop occasionally but I was a little concerned about it in a chick as young as her that had as much trouble as she had getting out.

Glenda L Heywood may be able to help you with this one, hopefully it's just nothing~
