I have a 12 week old lethargic chick too. Not sure about crops... So much to learn. She just followed the other girls outside today and hunkered down for a nap. That's the extent of her day today. I tried to give her mashed hard boiled egg. She ate a little. Every now and then she would get up (realize that she was alone) and peck at the ground for a minute. But then get back to sleep. I also saw that she has small, slimy green and cream colored poo.

Any thought as to what this could be?

I have also learned you can use a mr clean magic eraser on white birds =) I am going to try it on snowmiser's feet. You moisten the eraser and wipe it on dry feathers.

Two of my babies, a 4 month old silkie and Kota, our almost 4 year old Anatolian Shepherd. He's actually just hitting mental maturity for his breed. The silkies love him, they know they can get away with stealing his food and treats without retaliation. We were giving the dogs some boiled turkey yesterday (our tom was killed by a fox, but not eaten, we were able to salvage his meat) and the silkies were grabbing little pieces from between his paws! The only thing I don't like about this girl (besides her wings) is her rather 'flat' looking crest. It's got a ton of pins in it, however. so it may fill out more.
