Well what actually happened was I had given the chicks scambled egg and smoke got up there to steal it apparently ( I was asleep at the time) but I know it was him. He didn't hurt the chicks by biting or eating them just stole the food bowl and water bowl and in the process turned the light directly on the chicks and they died of the heat. He also stole the water bowl so they had no access to the water. I don't know why he did it, He has water in his bowl and food. Anyway it was a heartbreaking sight to wake up to, Just makes me want to cry! Smokes not a bad dog. But sometimes I just want to wring his little neck! 5 of the chicks hid from the light under the towel in the brooder box and survived. probably would have died if I hadn't have woke up and found them. I fought so hard to get these chicks hatched with that crappy incubator (Little Giant) being too hot then too cold then with the humidity, anyway in the end they survived just to die like this! It just makes me sick, And is very depressing. Thanks for listening Sandy
