Number 5 is due to hatch tomorrow.........the smallest one that hatched yesterday seems to be under the pile of chicks most of the time or every time I take a quick look........would he be crying if he was not being fed?? How do I tell if they are eating or not??.........the parents( THEY EAT AN AWFUL LOT AND CONSTANTLY TOO IT SEEMS) are really good with them and I can hear them feeding and the babies responding but as soon as I try to look in they stop feeding and the male comes out of the nest box......I check on them several times a day and I keep the fresh food coming 3X a day for the parents........Can I touch them and move them to rescue the little one from under the pile??
I run a very busy pet sitting business AND I don`t have much knowledge or time to hand feed a baby chick but I am willing to learn and try real hard! The mother is sitting on them a lot of the time and the father comes in and out......they seem to be taking turns or working in shifts.....LOL!!!
