I just loved this, trying to pass my time on day 19.

Have you hugged your chicken today?

Awwww... I love it that the hen came right up to him and snuggled into position. That's true chicken love!

I HAVE AN EMERGENCY!
One of my kids set one of the chicks in a box with a towel in it. I dont know when it was put there. It had some pasty butt and I got that taken care of but now it is about half the size of the ones its own age(2 weeks). Its almost the size of the day olds. I gave her some water in a dropper. She wont eat or drink own her own but cheeping very loudly and I noticed a bump in the middle of its chest. Not sure if it is her little crop or breast bone from dehydration?? I dont know what to do

I think I have all the ingredients to that. I put her back in the brooder with the others and they arent picking on her but should i take her out and mover her to her own to take care of her or leave her in there and give all of them the electrolytes
