Weak Chick????

[hcampo01]

i had eight chicks hatch last night but two of them aren't doing too well.They just lay down away from the rest and dont seem to get up. They dont have any deformities.Sometimes they try to move, but just end up squirming around. Does anybody know what's wrong with them?

Sometimes you get a weak one or two. I don't know if there's anything you could do to change things.

just let them do there own thing maybe put them near the food and water. make sure the others don't peck them. and let nature do what nature does.

okay

....sadly one of them died(the hen accidentally stepped on it) but the other one is still down. It just bobs his head a little and then goes back to laying his head down and won't even move. I just feel really bad that i can't do anything about it
