Eggs (scrambled and omelettes) hash browns, brownies, cinnamon rolls, cookies... There are a lot of things you can make in a waffle iron.

is that mucus????

Pfft, you wish.
@campingshaws do you have any idea her actual due date or this is all guess work? I think you didnt know right? how big is her belly now?

@Sally Sunshine One of my Christmas chicks is broody. I am not sure if I will break her or leave her be, it is really hot and humid here, and will only get hotter going into July.

hot is ok for chicks right? but where is she located and temp in that area?

Q
Hey all thank you for the support. I really need it. We lost the first chick about 5 pm and at 9:45 PM the second breathed it's last in DH2B's hand.

It also pooped as isn't uncommon in death but the stool was bloody and I take that as confirmation. The water is being treated and o have been syringe feeding them raw egg yolk laced with corid and electrolytes.

Is there anything else we can do? Am I doing anything wrong?

Would it hurt the littles inside to be put on a preventative dose? What age can they safely be given the corid?

As for the fox we look for it every night and wait up trying to catch it in the act. The flock has always been locked up every night. We are, however, locking them up earlier BC of it now but we never know when it will come.

awwww I think you know what temps are perfect for them and you are doing all correctly, what dosage of corid are you giving them? and are you doing probotics too?

She hasn't bothered mine.
Free range dog is the best, or electroFRY it! not the puny electonet either, go with a real electric fence, cost less than a $100 if you get a plug in model, wire is cheap, solar cost $$ I saw one at our feed store that is ac and dc with cables for less than TSC just ac, can add a battery and cheap solar panel from Northern Tool, few suggestions not my pics;

such beautiful whites! love your flock!
