Round Two!----3 Pips!!!!!!

Yes I have...the other one is doing perfectly. The second one hatched without entirely absorbing his yolk sac which is not a very good sign. He hasn't dried off since yesterday and has not taken a normal step. His toes were perfectly spaced when he hatched, but now they are "shriveled" and sticking to each other.

I make a mash of my babies' food, it helps cut down on waste as well. I just make a big batch of it and keep it in the fridge.

Do you have any poly-vi-sol drops you can give it?

 

[rodriguezpoultry]

Not on hand...let me see if I can find somewhere that has it.

 

[rodriguezpoultry]

Walgreens has it...how do I give it to the chick? In the water or directly into the mouth?

 

[rodriguezpoultry]

I gave the poly-vi-sol...20 minutes later it passed. Now I've only got the first baby left.

 

[rodriguezpoultry]

Giblet- the original baby- was freaking out so I put a small mirror in and put a radio next to the brooder. So far...no screaming chirps. Hopefully it will last!

Shoot. Sorry you lost the one. Fingers crossed for more to hatch.

 

[rodriguezpoultry]

There's only one more egg that has a chance to hatch. The others died earlier on. The only other ones that'll hatch will be the ones that are due next Friday.

aww! sorry you lost one!

Do you have a small stuffed animal or even a clean sock or wash cloth you could put in there with it..so it can snuggle up...
