Re: Sandy is a Daddy!!!!!
Here are pics of the 2 chicks I have inside......
Chick #1 This one really is a little butterball
Chick #2
They are both eating and drinking and should be fine!

Re: Sandy is a Daddy!!!!!
What a sad thing.......I know you will take good care of the chicks, and if anyone can figure out what is wrong, you will! Keep us posted, please.

Re: Sandy is a Daddy!!!!!
Just wondering... could it be new mommy syndrome? Very seldom do any of my birds (be it canaries, parakeets or Cockatiels get it right the first time (sometimes not even the second time) it is heart breaking but they finally learn. At least with chickens and quail you can save the little guys. I hope that is all it is and they will do well with the next clutch.

Re: Sandy is a Daddy!!!!!
They've done this before Basia and were so protective it was all we could do to feed and water them, we would stick an egg carton in the brooder to divert them from ripping our hands off!
