The chick has been given vitamins and seems to be doing better I don't know if it wishful thinking though it moves around like normal then the next time I check on it its feet look like it has arthritis its toes curled in . I feel like I need to be doing something more for this baby everyone in the house checks on the little thing we all want this baby to pull threw .

Aaaannnnd... I feel like the lowest worst ever d-bag on the planet. Got home from AL tonight & husband informed me we lost another chick. I did some phonecalls with breeder and with vet friend. That is absolutely not worms in their poo. They were overheating cuz brooder temp was too high. Despite the thermometer telling me otherwise. I feel awful. I basically freaking cooked them to death on a slow roast. That's gonna be some awful karma. I feel like a total baby killer.

I'm so sorry, hun.

As others have stated, do NOT blame yourself. We're all human and make mistakes. The most important think is to learn from them.

Big hugs from Flowery Branch!
 
Good news! I must not have screwed them up too bad because the two that had pipped are cracked more and a third has pipped! I can't tell if the last one has or not, because I think I accidentally faced the air cell away from me.

UPDATE:
As of 5:30am the Marans egg has hatched! From here she looks beautiful and perfect! (And boy has she got some Lungs!) Once she's dry and fluffy I'll take her out and we'll see if there's anything wrong. I'm so happy!
(please pardon the quality, it's with a flashlight and a cell camera.)

6:30 second chick is out! This one is one of the maran mixes' eggs and was one of the two pipped last night. No progress on the third pip yet, and still nothing on the light bramah mix egg!
