Sad little Orpington

[Iridian]

Fingers crossed for my buff orpington who hatched yesterday. In comparison to the other two girls she is wobbly and a little lethargic.

They are brooding in my downstairs bathroom, large storage tub at 96 degrees currently. She is drinking water with some Sav a Chick in it, but I haven't seen her eat anything yet. Maybe she just needs a day of rest? The brahma and ameraucana are bobbing all around her, eating up a storm and knocking her over.

If there is anything more i can be doing for her, I would appreciate the advice.
thanks in advance,
Iri

I would give her some mashed up hard boiled egg. One on my little ones could only eat the smallest bits of chick feed and only if it was on a hard surface to peck at for the first coupe days. Good Luck

Thanks for the suggestion of egg mash, I did try some for her last night. Sadly her breathing seemed to get worse and worse and this morning she was gone. very sad, poor girl.

The other two girls seem fine and healthy luckily.
