Haha xD I'm in a different country which is Philippines, that means only cats here are the predators. But I scared it and got so mad at them I almost killed it, and never returned.

will only a towel and cardboard box work? Any other alternatives?

I have a friend that just came back from the Phillipines. He's over there for his job. He is very impressed with the country and loved it.

Cats will come back. There are 12 in my backyard and will stop at nothing if there is a chance to get a chick.

What are the safe and effective alterrnatives of Apple Cider Vinegar? I don't have any here, but sometimes I drop a pinch of brown sugar in the drinking water for the chick. Is it effective and safe? I am really concerned of the digestive system of my chick and the pathogen in the water that might have. Thanks!

I have a baby chick that I just won froma streeet vendor who sells coloured chicks, and it's only one. I got it on December 19, 2014, and took it home and immediately put it in a cage where it's enough space for it. I fed it corn that time which is really cheap in a small plastic. The food was enough for only 2-3 days and got out of stock. I decided to feed the chick whole grain rice and found here that it needs grits if it you don't feed it chick starter feeds. So, I got out and got some dried leaves and some dried grass. The baby chick was like shocked for the first time to encounter that kind of thing, and after few minutes, it started like eating it. Or maybe not. On the next day, I asked my friend to give me some food he bought which is only P14.00 but a Stik-O jar is full. He gave me almost half of my plastic, and it looks like Purina feed but it's not Purina and it smells somehow pleasant to me. The chick loved it and ate lots, and I also gave the chick freesh water with a pinch of sugar which I saw on the internet. The chick is really active and hyper, and there's a time it sleeps in the house I provided for the chick but it's a bird house xD. I just put in the door whenever I sleep and go out to a trip to make sure it's safe. Then it sleeps peacefully inside the house, and you'll be shocked, it's alone! But I don't think it's sad, everytime one my my family members comes out and the chick sees, the chick chirps softly. That's good to hear it's strong and active and isn't weak. In two days, maybe it will be two weeks old. Anything you suggest? I need help. Oh and my grandfather's neighbour which is my friend had two chicks, the other one almost died because the mother hen stepped on it, my grandfather tooked care of it and cover it with towel. He fed it with sugar and water and using an injection to pour it in it's mouth! Surprisingly, it survived! But it still can't move yet, but it's chirping so loud. It almost died too because it was fed whole grain rice in one day old! XD the breed is chinese bantam, brown native from the hen, and the black native from the other rooster. I hope it could survive, if it lives tomorrow, it'll survive. If it's active and strong again, I'll take care of it and my alone chick would have a companion

Are you from Philippines?

Tw should I give my chick a perch? Whenevr I put my hand inside, it stands on my hand and peck but that doesn't mean it doesn't want me. Any advice?
