I have had a sleepy baby like that and it did fine, just seemed to take a few days to get going. It did have me worried tho!
My second chick to pip did it at the wrong end of the egg, and it drowned
Aww she is a cutie!! My little one with the navel problem has once again poo'd green. None of my others did this, and even though its ok, it still freaks me out. It's also the noisiest of the 4. I feel so bad because it seems so lonely and is calling out for "mom"I had a baby get stuck with membrain on its eye and head and wing and had a rough naval with a little slime and stuff last night , I cleaned her up and let her rest for awhile in the bator . She is still sleeping more then the others in the brooder but as long as the owie dosnt get pecked by the others or infected she will do fine they usually do just keep an eye on yours like I will be on mine. These guys can be so contradictory some of them seem to kill over for no reason and then some of them have problems and stuff and still make it fine.Here is my little one today. Seems to be doing ok dried up pretty well. Since her little never is under her bottom unless I have a reall picker she should be fine as long as she dosnt try to sleep on her back.
I can proudly say our BLRW roo is definitely doing his job! 100% hatch rate with our eggs from our quad so far.
Sounds like you have a good breeding set then! Congrats!None of my Chocolate Wyandotte eggs have hatched yet. Neither has the one Black Copper Marans egg in there. However there is at least one Choc Orp chick, some Silkies and a BLRW.I can proudly say our BLRW roo is definitely doing his job! 100% hatch rate with our eggs from our quad so far.
You could go with the highly contagious incuviewhatchitis or more simpler for non poultry folks...bird fluI don't know how much more I can take! I had one zipping (large hole with beak poking out) for hours and the little guy is just happy where he is! Still waiting on 2 eggs that where due yesterday who have done nothing and a bantam egg that is due tomorrow. Nerve wracking!! I'm seriously thinking about calling in sick tomorrow, cause it will drive me crazy wondering. Now to think of what my story will be!
Hoping everyone still waiting, gets some action soon and that it goes quickly.
Here is my first chick!
Awwwwww baby bird! I love the little beak sticking out of that other egg too
Here is my first chick!
