Hello,
I have nine new baby chicks all doing good except for 1. Three were born on Wednesday the 21st. The two are doing great but one little one doesn't seem to get it. He will peck the food on the ground but it appears the crop is empty. Ive watched and he pecks away but doesn't seem to actually pick the food up and eat it. Ive tried mashing and soaking the crumbles and tried a different type of mash food. He runs moves around scratching and pecking but crop empty. Any ideas?
