So we had the chicks outside enjoying the beautiful weather while we added some fun stuff to their brooder. (Six chicks are two weeks, the other six are a week old.) My son decided it was a good idea to turn the hose on them. They got wet, and my husband rushed and got them, and we have them in the brooder under the heat lamp. I have it lowered for a little bit.
They are cuddling up. Is there anything else I can do? The two week olds appear almost dry now, but a couple of the smaller ones are still wet, and my runty one that we sprayed with Blue Kote and just re-introduced back to the group is peeping away, so the bigger ones have now laid around her, I presume to warm her up.
