Hi all,
I just got my shipment of chicks this morning! I ordered 18 rare assortment and all were alive on arrival.
Its been about 3 hours and one seems to not be doing well. It's been a few years since I had chickens and I believe I have tried everything.
She drinks when I touch her face to the water, will not eat, and just huddles up to the heater (EcoBrooder). She is not pasted (I checked). Any other advice? I do realize that losing one in the first 48 hours is sort of common but I want to give her the best chance possible.
Thank you!
