ValleChicks saying hello and...

[Vallechicks]

Hi, I'm new to BYChickens and I'm raising a new flock of baby chicks. I bought 10 Americaunas and an assorted 12 others. Sadly I've lost 3 of the assorted chicks. Any suggestions on how I can minimize any further loss of life?

Welcome to our FUNomenal community!
We’re so glad you found us!
What are you feeding your flock? Where is the brooder located? Inside or outside? Is there any signs of predator behavior? What is the temp in the brooder? Any signs of illness?

Welcome to BYC!
How old are your chicks?

Welcome to BYC. Were they shipped or picked up locally? Temperature, age, feed, space are all factors to be considered. Hopefully losses have stopped.

We'll help you if we can!

Welcome to Backyard Chickens. Were your chicks showing any symptoms before dying.,
like poor eating, unusual poo, worms in droppings etc. You may want to post their symptoms at "Emergencies, diseases, injuries, cures, thread."
