I have 3 baby chicks what are the breeds and how do i clean/bathe them. Two of them are black they are 3 weeks old and the other one is 1 month old.

Those are poopballs. You'll want to get those off asap or they will actually cut off circulation and kill the nail. It's happened to my birds before. You take the bird, set the feet in water to soak and have to physically (and carefully so you don't tear the nail off) pick at it with a nail.

i can only stroke them with a finger maybe other than that they wont let me. Also they are three weeks old and yet they can fly like 2 meters high how does that work the other one the golden femal can barely go 30cm horizontally

Your just gonna have to catch them I think

but the issue is i dont want to hurt the chicks and let me tell you these are probably the strongest chicks ive ever seen they can run so fast i dont want them to injure themselves

Also i live in the U.A.E in the middle east where its very hot so if you know any breeds please let me know

It's either that or they die. If they loose circulation then they can loose their legs. Though our animals might not know it, we have to do what best for them even if they think that it's scary.

Any breeds?

 

[NeroTheFirst]

i dont know anything about the breeds so if you know about any which live in hot climate then let me know

 

[NeroTheFirst]

if you can identify these chickens maybe i can tell the breed for the female

Looks like a bunch of mixed breeds.

Do not EVER bathe a chick. Use warm water and a cloth or cotton pad to gently remove the poop balls on their feet. You may need to clean their brooder more if they are getting poop balls on their toes.

Just grab them gently but firmly, making sure their wings stay folded to their backs. As long as you don't squeeze them, you're not going to hurt them. The poop needs to come off asap.
