Should I separate my little runt?

I guess I’ll just have to wait it out and see how s/he does. I just wish I could do something to ensure BonBon’s survival.

S/he’s so much smaller and just stands off by her/himself

I heard this one girls chick was being bullied and pecked at, so she used bag balm, it’s ok for the other chicks to eat but chickens do not like the taste and the other chicks think it smells gross so they avoid that chick I’m not sure it will work but you could try I don’t know. She just applied to some of her feathers

Poor Bon Bon, looks like she is not doing well. I would put a piece of hardware cloth in there separating her from the others so they cannot peck at her or trample her. That way she would still feel like she is part of the flock and not alone. Make sure you put food and water on her side.

Unfortunately she may not make it

I guess I do the best I can and love BonBon while s/he is here

Well, don’t give up on her. Just separate her with a little piece of hardware cloth. Just know that not all the little chicks make it. If you can add a little chick electrolyte to her water

S/he’s actually a Lakenvelder

Bonbon has actually been doing okay. S/he’s not getting trampled as much and seems to be developing some fight. But Bonbon’s vent looks weird. It doesn’t seem prolapsed but if not, what’s up with it?
