Silkie Question

In the Brooder

This guy was born yesterday but didn’t look as fluffy and uppity as the other two.

Am I over thinking?

Anyone with familiarity - does this babe look good?

Also I can’t get any of the three to eat? I dunked their head in water and tried dunking in egg yolk and have chick crumble in the brooder. I heard silkies need vitamins? Which kind? There are so many.

Thank you!!!
I’ll take any help or thought.

I couldn’t post the video so I took a photo.

Silkies are fragile. You might try not to handle them for a few days.
I use Rooster Booster vitamins, make sure you follow dosage directions and don't put in too much.
