I can't find any buddies. I've been searching all day, and NO ONE has new chickies I can buy! She is VERY loud with the peeping. She stops right when I walk in the room though XD

stick her in your shirt while you sit at the computer or watch tv ect , she will love spending snuggle time with you , and if you keep her in your shirt she will stay nice and warm as body temp is 98 you can wear a t shirt between you and her for the little poopies if you want or get her a litle chickie diaper.
Get her brooder set up with food and water dishes , a place she can get nice and warm and a place she can get cooled of and get her a really fluffy stuffie or a feather duster / feather boa for when she isnt with you.

Alright. I'll try that. Her poops are very squishy though XD

Anyone have success sexing based on wing feathers?

Thanks everyone, but i have one question. I've always heard that after they hatch chicks will just sit and rest for awhile, but my first one(pictured) hasnt stopped moving since. Is that normal?

Well Hope didn't poop once for the whole half hour that I held her. She loved it! She stopped peeping and fell asleep a few times. When I went to put her in the incubator, she wouldn't get off my hand! Much different from earlier, when she ran away from my hand! <3 I gave her some food and helped her find the water (she never seems to know where it is) and she fell asleep basking in the light!

She climbed up my neck, and it tickled a LOT! Thanks for telling me that, gabrielle! Now Hope will not feel so lonely! I put paper towel under her and put on my bathrobe over my shirt, and she didn't get cold!

my first 2 were like that...granted they are just hours old...they seem fine...they did finally settle down and sleep . Congrats on the babies!!!
