Yes they are do very well. I brought some food w/brewers yeast a water container, nutri-drench and heat lamp. They have all been eating and drinking and now some are napping.

@Miss Lydia What could cause this it looks like foam?

 

[Miss Lydia]

Is it hot in your brooder looks kind of cramped too. has it gotten to drink good.

 

[blayt90]

That is temporary just while I am at work. The rest are all comfortable and sleeping now. It is 85-90 degrees right under the lamp.

 

[Miss Lydia]

Temp brooder right might just be too warm or hasn't gotten hydrated good. Just guessing @blayt90

 

[Miss Lydia]

That should be okay but those lil ones are probably putting out some heat of their own too. See if you can get it to drink some water.

I did stick its beak in the water a couple of times. do I need to put some in its beak and make it drink?

 

[Miss Lydia]

Nope you don't want it to get into the wrong place so just try to encourage it to drink by keeping it close to the water for now when you get home I'd put some electrolytes or Poultry Nutri Drench into their drinking water. It's acting okay other than a little foam?

Yes it is acting okay just swallowing a lot. and they have nutri-drench in their water now.
