Yes it's so sad!I know right! Hate losing chicks!
Maybe you can get another someday and name her Leslie IIThank you I really liked her feathered feet. (they were darker than others).
I’m very sorry to hear about your sweet chick. Leslie was adorable.sadly one of our Maran chicks passed away tonight We checked on them tonight after a day of being out and saw that one was acting emaciated. We gave her some sugar water and got her warm. Checked her bum and realized that she had pasty butt! (We had previously checked all of them ) We gently removed it with a warm towel and sat with her in a towel next to the fireplace. I could tell that she wasn’t going to make it. She died peacefully after some fight.
I checked the other chicks and all of their vents look clean. Their brooder is clean and is sitting at 85-90F.
What are y’all’s thoughts? Should we increase the temperature? They are on medicated chicken starter and drinking water mixed with hydro hen 3 in 1.
I know these things happen but I’m worried about my other chicks.
RIP Leslie
She was so cute and started off so strong. We gave her a name when we knew her life was coming to an end. This might seem immature and cheesy, but my fiancé and I buried her in a band-aid box in our side woods. I wrote her a little note and put it inside the box. It was my first chick death in a flock I'd claimed as my own you know.I’m very sorry to hear about your sweet chick. Leslie was adorable.
