Week old chick with hot bum

[Chickychicky111]

This is cutie. He has an injured foot that is beginning to blacken and shrivel up. His bum is also very hot when I hold him. He gets picked on by other chicks. He is much smaller, and always chirping loudly. He is in my hand while I am writing this. Cuties feathers are kind of mussed up. He is the only chick that still has his egg tooth. He is 9 days old. He lives in a breeder by himself so that the other chicks don’t bully him. Sometimes I let a few visit so he doesn’t get lonely. Cutie needs help. He was born with a lot of bleeding from umbilical cord, and is the weakest chick. Please help cutie

Do you have one "nice" chick that can stay with him until he grows a bit more? I think the loneliness might be worse for him. If he is 9 days old, he might be recovering ok. Can you do a sav-a-chick vitamin and probiotics supplement in his water? Cute chickie!

Yeah, they don’t pick on him as much anymore, so I let one or two chicks stay with him. I’ll look into those vitamins. Thanks!

Maybe massage his leg for increased circulation? Why is his foot shriveling!?

 

[Chickychicky111]

I’m not sure. He had a large scab on his elbow, probably from the other chicks pecking.
