Help* My black silkie chick is wobbly*-Another question added**** Please answer!

[PoultryGirly]

I got chicks from McMurray hatchery. They arrived yesterday. The 2 black silkies were fine when they arrived. After I payed more attention later, I noticed they were both wobbly. That was the first day. Today, one of them was fine. The other a little wobbly. Just nnow, I put the less stable one by the water. He drank and drank and drank. Then, he started shaking a little. We put the light closer and he stopped shaking. Now he is wobbly again. I don't know if he is weak or his leg is hurt or what. Please help. Last time I had bad luck with silkies.

I don't know if my silkie is getting better. I think he is. He's not shaking or wobbling. He'll walk around and eat. It's the first time I've ever seen him eat! I guess the silkie is getting better. I hope so.

He might be cold. Try moving the lamp just a little bit closer.
Murry McMurry is usually a very trustworthy hatchery. Iv'e never had any problems with them.

Yes, McMurray is a very good hatchery and the only one I will order from.

Should I feed them medicated or non-medicated food?

Medicated!
Try to get chick starter medicated food, if you can.
