Three New Chicks

[jennsanders74]

I was told that these chicks were about 4 to 6 weeks and I got them a week and a half ago. No other real information was given as it was basically a trade for my Oliver rooster that I couldn’t keep. My new two of them have been sneezing like crazy and I’ve been trying to nurse them back to health. One which was on their deathbed. she seems however, to be doing much better, but continues to sneeze.

They are also very, very messy and kick their food all over the dang place. I don’t know how to stop that but I’m wasting a lot of food!! Also I haven’t cleaned their pen yet today. (so no judging!)

Hang the feeders or put them on a platform so they can't scratch the feed out onto the floor.

I hope they're quarantined from your other chickens since they seem to be ill. You can make a post on this forum if you need help getting them back to health. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures.10/
