I am officially insane....(Problem solved, update p. 4)

[redroosta]

its alot like a chick i had called sparta, he thinks you are his mom. he imprinted on you. really what i used to do is i would hold him in my hand under the light and when he fell alsleep i would leave. chicks are pretty heavy sleepers the first week.

I had the same problem except it went on for a month. I kept thinking the chick would grow out of it - instead it got louder as it got older. I finally put a mirror in the brooder and got two cheap beanie babies (one's a bluebird and the other's a parrot). Now the chick sleeps between the two toys--so cute, and is content to be without me 24/7.

No, he is a barred rock. He is just now getting most of his feathers, so he is still all fluff.

Look in the local Bulletin Board or Craig's list, you should be able to find him a tiny buddy.

Gosh, it sounds just like having a baby!

If you were nearby I would give you a chick!
