Next to think about is seeding their little guts with good bacterial fauna.

I added organic apple cider vinegar (with the cloudy culture in it) and Duvacet (vitamins and electrolites) to their water....not much, just a little bit. I also gave them good organic plain yogurt...they will love it.

It sounds like alot, but just take it one step at a time.

I put in some pine wood chips today covered with tissue paper. They still seem to eat some small chips every now and then but I have it covered pretty good so that it's difficult. My concern is that one of them started walking low to the ground a few hours ago. Is this something I should be worried about? The chick is normally very active and jumping around but isn't doing that right now. I also noticed him laying on his side with his left leg stretched out. He also seems to be a little bigger in size then what I remember earlier today. They are both eating, drinking, and pooping normally.
