Hello everyone, Unfortunately, during the night one of the chicks passed away. The second is improving though! Thank you, everyone, for the support and I pray that the now one chick will make it.

Thanks, the chicks are doing much the same. I wish I had more options for housing but I am limited. I have made the investment of a second heat lamp and I have it running now. Would putting some of the chicks in a second temporary pen fix the trapping? I will try the hairdryer and get some...

Thank you! Looking at this it's most likely the number of chicks we have, our pen is about 32" by 40" plus feed, water, and a small sectioned off place. In there we have about 105 chicks. They were outside in a pen that is about 10ft by 5ft but we had a really nasty, windy, and cold storm hit...

Thanks, I do hope that it doesn't come to that, sorry for your loss. Most of the flock is only 3 days old, We have a quarateen section in the pen, I can move it closer to the heat lamp if you think that would help.

It's not choking. No, I am not sure, it cannot walk on the leg. it's purplish around the join it cannot move its upper thigh. The wing on the same side is limp too. What kind of neurological issue are you referring to?

I don't know of any around me. I mean we have a vet but I don't think they help chickens.

Do you know anyone who might be able to help?

Thanks, I'm just hoping that I can help them... I'd hate to see them die as I've had a high mortality rate in the last week.

Hello! I was just checking on my other chicks to find one trampled and dying! I don't know how this keeps happening! It's weak and cannot seem to move its left leg, I think it's broken. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello everyone! This morning I woke up to find one of my little 5-day-old chicks (who is can't stand up or walk) dying. It keeps trying to raise it's head and chokes when I try to give it water. I tried to hobble it but it doesn't work. It is gasping for air. It's been weak ever since hatching...

I just saw newborn chicks. CUTEST. THINGS. EVER.

Alright, I'[m not seeing anything significant in these books. I think most likely what's happening is she got in a fight or something like that or she's simply molting (why I don't know). I would recommend asking someone else about this though before dismissing it.

Is there any change in her condition?

Alright, I have quite a few books on chickens where I am. I can't pull anything off the top of my head so I'll go and do some quick research and then I'll come back.

Okey doke, I'll get some art started then!

Okay good. I'd hate the thought that I may have been mean to you :(

*shyly steps in* I hope no one minds my presence... Name: Sterling (Pics blow) Race: Rockenuff Appearance: Sterling silver with two large wings (black and rainbow). Rainbow scales down her back. Fit. Gender: Female Past: found by a little girl before hatching, fought a lot of things as she...

Okay, it may be disease or mites. Do you have any books on chickens? Perhaps Story's Guide to Raising Chickens?

What's their temperament?

Sorry! sorry! sorry! sorry! I didn't mean to sound rude, I just was stating my inexperience...
