This little chick was brought to me on March 1st, I’m guessing he hatched the day before.
There are a lot of loose hens around town that don’t belong to anyone and many of them have chicks now. This chick was found alone, and since I do pigeon and dove rescue, they brought him to me. It was during a crazy lightning/thunderstorm.
It was real touch and go the first couple days but now he is doing well and has a lot of energy, and will officially be joining our family!
Any guess on breed possibly? I know it’s probably too early to determine the sex.
Any tips on raising a single chick appreciated! He is kept indoors, with a heat lamp. We took him outside to get some clear photos
(We are building a coop for getting hens next month so hoping he or she will be able to join them at some point)
