Winging it!

[MedicLindsey]

Greetings all. New to chickenhood. Researched and planned before getting them but they are definitely their own little floofballs of personality. I dont know how many times in the first hour I was home with them I thought they died. Lol they’d do all these crazy things-sleep then fall over, stretch a leg or both way out n lay all stretched out, just flop somewhere… giving me a heart attack. Crazy floofs.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.

I’ve got one that’s a big mouth and she just chirps and chirps and chirps!!

This usually indicates that the chick is cold. What type of heat source are you using?

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!

Wait until they get older and dust bathe. They look like they're dead too. In fact, one of our greeters has a thread, https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/this-chicken-is-not-dead.1632248/
