Ahh thankyou, they are growing sooo quick, they are outside in the old brick outhouse, converted into a growing coop... I find it helps get them ready to move to a big chickie coop, as they dont get cold due to the type of building it is... They are doing fab.. I will try get some pictures as soon as I can....

I have some news on the chick with the wry neck... by the time my DB had got home from work, it seemed to have slightly improved... He said he will cull the next day, when he had the day off.... Yet again more improvement.. So my DB just could not do it... I told him it is not fair to keep it alive, as it wont get better (I cannot cull myself, thats DB job

) Anyway yet again the following day a tiny little tilt, hardly noticable.... the day after the wry neck had completely gone... No sign of even the slightest tilt... I am amazed, I have a bunch of miracle chicks

I am so glad my DB put his foot down due to the slight improvement

I have just taken some quick pictures.. It gets harder to get good ones now there older, they dont stand still for more than a second

They are now 6 weeks old..

The chick who had wry neck (as you can see no sign of it at all)

And again the chick in the middle that had wry neck, with its siblings

oh my gosh... I just read this whole thread from the start, and what an emotional rollercoaster it's been!

So sorry that you lost your Daisy, and so glad her miracle chick survived and is growing up to be such a beauty! The happiest ending possible to such a sad story

What a story!! You are a wonderful chickie mum! Sorry about Daisy- but congrats on her baby! Daisy's Legacy! Thanks for sharing this glorious story!

I am so happy that blossom is doing good. And I am also so happy to hear the chick with wry neck pulled threw! That is amazing! Congrats!
