This would NOT go without a letter to my attorney generals office. What is the matter with the UPS people, there is no excuse for them not doing their job and they didn't do their job. If they showed up dead what then, just order more. These are living beings for Gods sake. Someone needs to hear about this regardless how sorry they were or how nice they were after the fact. Also I don't think big heads on these chicks are a good sign either. Not sure what causes it but it doesn't sound good from what I've heard from those that have experienced this. Sorry for the poor chicks experience and I hope they pull though.
I did in fact give them scrambled eggs this morning but they only walked around in it, squishing it between their toes and creating a mess (didn't eat it). They resembled Lucille Ball stomping around in the grape bin, making a mess. I dipped their beaks in it but they just flung their heads around and looked at me indignantly.YAY!!! I'm so glad you got them!
It might be worth a try to feed them some scrambled eggs and/or yogurt just to try to give them some extra protein. I had some lethargic & dying chicks once and the hatchery told me to try that.
