In the Brooder
I have a three day old chick who hatched Monday morning, she is tiny she's a third of the size of her brothers and sisters. She won't eat or drink at all, she has curled in toes so I taped her feet to keep her toes spread out, she doesn't walk and tips over if I don't support her. I keep her in a bandana around my neck and have tried giving her vitamin water by dipping her beak in it and through a syringe. I've tried feeding her soaked chick starter through a syringe and with my finger, I've also tried egg yolk through the syringe and fried egg with milk and chick starter, I can't get her to eat anything she just wants to sleep all the time. She makes this adorable little purring sound when I touch her and I can't bear the thought of her dying, I cry just thinking about it. Please is there anything else I can do for her.
