Hi Carla,
Yes, I've had some of the same happen with my Isbars. Here's what I think I know about it. They do flip on their backs.. a lot, during the first day/day and a half. I'll go in and check on them ever half hour or so, and flip 'em back on their bellies. Sometime during the 2nd day, they started staying on their feet. I also noticed that they do better if given a few meals of grogel for a couple of days, sometimes 3 days. They've all been strong and good eaters/drinkers. But that first couple of days is spent giving them grogel (and baby starter & water) and flipping them over. lol Then they're fine. Their little voices are different that a most chicks, too... did you notice that? I hope this helps and eases your mind a little. : )
