    New hatch chick with a Big Problem **GRAPHIC**

    I ended up putting down the little one. As hard as she was fighting the intestines wouldn't go back in.

    Intervention: Helping Your Chicks Hatch

    Thank you. I tried to leave her in as long as possible but I am probably going to have to humainly let her go. I posted again separately. Nut shell bleeding stopped but baby burst its yoke sack the next evening at which point I finished helping hatch so she wouldn't drown. I doubt there is...

    New hatch chick with a Big Problem **GRAPHIC**

    Hi. So long story short I assisted hatching for this baby at 24 days (upside down positioning). I saw it still had yoke so I stopped and tried to let it stay in the shell as long as possible. About 24 hrs after I intervened she ruptured the yoke and I had to finish the hatching to stop her...

    Intervention: Helping Your Chicks Hatch

    Ok, so at 23 days I was pretty sure my remaining eggs were all toast but during eggtopsy I found one alive! Chick is upside down and just couldn't seem to move to create any kind of pip. I tried to create a zip, hit a vein and stopped three hours ago. I went back to check again and baby is in...

    You can also get it from dirt. I got it on my lower back many eons ago from doing sit-ups in a field.

    Cold 11 week pullet, bugs, help!!

    She passed about 10 last night. Wyorp- I will pick up stuff for tube feed in case this ever happens again. I just couldn't get her to swallow anything from the syringe I was using. At least she was warm and bug free when she did go.

    Cold 11 week pullet, bugs, help!!

    I got a little into her. Trying again in a few. She really has no interest in opening her beak or swallowing what I get into it.

    Cold 11 week pullet, bugs, help!!

    She got a nice bath, blow dried and is resting on a warming pack wrapped in towels. There is a bowl of food right under her beak. She has perked up a little bit but is still very weak. She is staying in our bah tub in a cat carrier overnight. Not sure what else I can do at this point.

    Cold 11 week pullet, bugs, help!!

    I went to move my little gals in with the big girls tonight and when I picked up gal 3 she was completely unresponsive. She is breathing and I managed to warm her up a bit so she moved some but she is back to just lying there. All 3 were active and seemed normal yesterday but after handling her...

    Snow flurries here Debating mixing my three little 11 week old faverolles in with my 5 month olds tonight. I don't have many days available where I can supervise them so if I don't tonight it will likely be another week or two. Thoughts?
