Chick is about 3 days old. Drinking. Has eaten a bit of chick starter yesterday but not much. Is very chatty, especially when I leave him. Haven't noticed anything wrong with his poops. He is being kept in a box in the brooder so he doesn't get attacked by the other chicks. Heat lamp. Barastoc chick starter. Feed only recently brought for the chicks. The other chicks are fine and so are the peachicks who are having the same feed. This chick needed help out of the egg so is weaker than the rest. Moved into the brooder yesterday afternoon. Also, yes he had a wonky toe. I'm in the process of making a shoe for him. View attachment 2989998 View attachment 2989996
sesame seeds. you will not need a shoe if you give your chick sesame seeds (together with chick starter). I have fixed many chicks with the same issue. also some honey in water for the first 2-3 days.
