alright so i hatched some chicks under a broody hen and i dont know why but one by one they are dieing
now we were on the last one and my oldest daughter found it under my deck. limp but still breathing i grabbed it took it inside fed it elecrolights and put it on a heating pad. it looked bad thought we where going to loose it weaker and weaker the poor thing almost stopped breathing so i let it be and put it on the pad to go. my daugter checked on it about 15 minutes ago and its was standing up peeping and rolling off the pad. leaving it be a little longer i saw not to long ago crawling around on the carpet. thinking both momma and baby were looking for each other i brought her in.. im really hoping that we saved this one i hear it churping under mom in the other room right now.. hes still not standing very well but doing better each time i see it.. did i do the right thing tring to save it or do you think i should have put it out of it misery?? am i setting my self for heart ache in the morning?
( i thing my turkeys are the culprates of my chickies deaths now that i think of it) i have one mother doing a very good job she still have all 6 babys but this one lost 5 and this is her last one.
