I gave her nutri drench concentrated from a syringe for two days a few days ago. I basically just touched her beak to the bead of nutri drench at the end of the syringe. She responded well. Before and after that, the entire flock of babies have recieved nutri drench in their drinking water. They are doing really well on it. Youngest chicks are ten days, oldest are 17.
I am really impressed with nutri drench. I think from now on every time i start babies I'll be using it. These chicks seem to be growing even more healthily and stronger than my chicks before. Except for little blue that is! I need to come up with a name, otherwise little blue is going to stick, and that's not a very creative name! Ha ha
She's just adorable!
Isn't she just the cutest? I really hope she makes it, and so far she had been improving since i started this post! Thank you lord!
I concur that a lot of feed store employees don't know what they're doing. But we live in a very rural area, so the employees are pretty well versed in poultry. From what i read the infection most often takes place in the incubator and shipping.
