Lonley newly hatch chick what should i do!?!?!?!

[Meganwilson14]

Yes! Yesterday i had six bantams 5 pipped and one didnt we also had a power outage at the same time! Iam assuming them five got shrink wrapped because they were dead when power was restored the last bantam pipped he is the only one that survived! What do i need to do! I got week old baby turkeys i could put him with or next week i have baby ducks that are suppose to hatch and put him with them! I need some help with this little fella so hes not lonely!

I would wait and go with the ducks. The turkeys would be larger and this little one would be smaller. Good luck with the chick.

I've seen some people on here get a little plushie for the lovely baby.

Find it a friend if possible. Some on here say not to put chicks with ducks. Ducks are messy. Do you happen to have a broody? That would work also.

Sounds like a good reason to practice some chicken math!

Love chicken math but the hubby doesn’t understand.

You can do a turkey once Baby is up on its feet. I tried a chick with a Call duckling and the Duckling grew too fast and gave the chick a brain injury so I had to kill the chick.
Or Hang a mirror for the chick and put up a look no touch pen between the turkeys?

I had a lone egg hatch a few weeks ago. I found a few baby chicks to grow with it. They were a week old so she has been trying to keep up with them ever since, but she is a tough little girl.

I had one hatch from a broody. Broody took in the 3 week old chicks I had. Very funny seeing the little one try to keep up with the bigger ones.
