Sleep well

Awwwww poor little thing. Silver lining is that you were holding it so it didn't die cold and alone I hope you manage some sleep and will feel better after you bury it and say a little prayer.

So sorry

Awww Lucy, I am so sorry!
What you described is similar to my EE chick Sarah, she had issues hatching and when she dried had a heart attack, flipping and flopping like you’ve never seen. I was there and did “chicken CPR” Sarah loved and is now fully grown. So sorry Lucy about your precious baby.

thank you.... I belive it is the one I assisted in hatching, the only thing is it showed no simptoms until yesterday I noticed it walked with its chest lower than the rest, then I found it laying sideways staring strait up with its head to its back... kind of like what they call stargazing with a lamb.

It might have had some issues from birth. Some animals from every batch, especially when hatched from eggs, never really have a chance to survive. Think of it like a stillborn, but a bit late. The best you can do is make them comfortable.

So sorry you lost the chickie
Is it possible she got too cold? I had a newly hatched serama fall out of it's nest from under momma and almost froze to death, When I had found it she wasn't moving at all and when I picked it up it stiffened and kept pushing it's legs out kind of like how you described it, I put it back under momma to warm up and the next day she was perfectly fine..

I don't think so, since it was walking strange all day when it was under the momma, and I had it in my hands and it wasn't cold... also the mom kept on trying to push it back under her, but it would just flop back out every time like it was seizing. it was sad

I'm so sorry! How small is the food you're giving them? For the bantams even I have to put it in the food processor sometimes for the smaller chicks. I learned that lesson the hard way.
