Happy Birthday! 🎂

When they are so young, they're pretty awkward at eating/drinking. I wouldn't worry too much unless this continues for more than another day. At least it's getting some small amt by dipping its beak, but you're right, they have to tilt their heads up or back. You could try make a mash out of...

That looks more like it got injured on something. I'd soak it in warm Epsom salt water so that will not only clean the wound but allow you to see it close up without blood so you can tell what's wrong better. I would put some Neosporin w/o pain killer or any triple antibiotic ointment on it...

Gosh that's horrible. To suddenly watch your canary bleed to death in a minute in front of you had to be a little shocking. I've had macaw parrots for over 20 years and know nothing of anything that would cause a vessel to burst. Since there was a black dot on its leg, I presume that could...

A week-old chick wouldn't have bumblefoot as I'm assuming they're on paper towels or pine shavings, plus, it would take more than a week. The missing toe, at that age, should be okay, but if it's favoring that leg, I'd wonder if something happened to it involving more than the toe. Look its...

I would do what you're doing right now and see how they do with each other growing up together. It should get more attuned to sound and know where its siblings are. I wouldn't feed that one any differently. They might take to mash now, where you add water to the crumbles so it is the...

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!! :frow We get a few teachers now and then due to the hatching in the schools. Welcome aboard!! Lots of help here and tons of articles to help learn from as well!

I looked them up and saw several of the photos of chickens they purport to have eggs of are pictures on the internet. That's not a good thing! They're even using Cackle Hatchery's photo of the silkies. I searched and couldn't find anything negative about them but perhaps they're new at...

Thank you! It was a find on Marketplace. I do staggered hatches but always have minimally 5 days in between them, and for the reasons @NatJ said. Without having a second incubator, this would get tricky as you'd have some eggs in back-to-back lockdowns.

What did you use after the doggy pee pads?

I'd love to know too. Is this another one of those conspiracy theories again? I've never heard a word about it.

We use FG DE in our coop for years but never a brooder. In the coop, I use an old parmesan cheese dispenser and yes, just sprinkle around the coop only, not the chickens, about once a month keeps the mites/lice away. We use horse bedding pellets in both coop and brooders. Keeps both dry and...

I'm excited! I'm getting antsy and hope she's able to ship this coming Monday.
