I bought a few chicks and gave them a heat lamp however, we had a very unfortunate accident with the heat lamp and it fell on top of my little pekin bantam Mochi. She was under it for around 10 seconds and was promptly taken to the emergency vet. Shes around 4 weeks old. I think its a girl (pale comb, no wattle development, curved wings meeting tail). Shes being isolated while being treated for her wounds.
Im worried about Mochi being lonely, especially since she's been with siblings and all of a sudden shes by herself.
Im making an effort to spend time with her but i cant keep her company 24/7 and i have cats who would definitely be interested in eating her so shes limited to one room that im not always in.
Shes been very interested in cuddles and has been climbing onto me and wants to sit near my face and preens and eats and chatters.
She cant go in with the others due to risk of infection (shes on antibiotics) and pecking. Im also keeping her indoors where its nice and warm.
Is there something more i can do so she doesnt get too sad alone?
