In the Brooder
I have a chick that is about 4 days old. It can't stay awake for more than 30 seconds it seems. Yesterday I noticed it is now a little smaller than the rest, but it was the first hatched. When I poke around in the brooder, it is alert and active, for about 30 seconds, then it settles to sleep. I've started manually giving it water, but it doesn't want to peck any feed from my fingers with the others. Today I will get some electrolytes to continue watering it, but does anyone have any suggestions about it not eating? It's poop is greener than the others which makes me think it's not eating.
Thanks for any advice and info!
