Hatching
Okay, so my broody bantam just up and stopped sitting on her last two eggs. She'd already hatched three, I guess she was tired of waiting... one egg was dead, and the other was only just hanging on. It was so cold... so I put it in my incubator quick as I could, and hatched a healthy, happy bantam chick!
I figured I could reintroduce it now, since the coop isn't large and I was sure the chick could get back to her if it strayed, and she was very responsive to it. But I go and check this morning, just being safe, and find she's just left it in the cold!! I rushed it inside, barely breathing, and warmed it by the heater. It's awake now and cheeping... but sneezing. ): I'm really worried. Is it sick?
Any help greatly appreciated!
