Weird little runt

[le_bwah]

Are you sure it's not eating or drinking? If so, it's unkind to keep it around, even with you hand feeding it. I would cull, personally. There's likely something wrong internally that's causing this failure to thrive. Sorry your little chick isn't doing well.

I'm sorry for your little runt. It's always tough losing a chick. But you gave it love and comfort in its short life.

We recently had a runt hatch. Little bugger wouldn't give up and eventually ate and drank regularly. Though smaller, it feathered out and is one of the flock. Still a bit early to say what will become of her when she's old enough to lay eggs. What ended up happening to yours?

I’ve got a runty one right now as well. Seems we’ll just quite small compared to the others. Waiting to see what happens with it.

It passed away the next day.
