Went to bird room for morning round and saw one chick has left the nest box some time early morning.
I think he is not well but I can't figure it out. The poop is dark green, not solid but in shape and soft with very very tiny water around the edges.

I am going to order it very soon with some other stuff as well. I tried online but they don't have delivery option to our place in their online shop. I will have to figure out something.

I did put the chick back in the nest box but the hen didn't allow him inside for long, so I had to place a Gazunder in the cage. The cock is doing superb job feeding the chick. But chick is still shivering after 3 days, as in the video and won't come out of the Gazunder. The chick is 33 days old today.

might just be me but it looks cold ?. I thought the same as barrie because dark green i think usually indicates they're not eating or they're stressed (the dropping colour that is). Hope he pulls through for you .

Hope he pulls through for you . I thought so and provided some extra heat but that didn't work either. Somehow the hen allowed him back in the nest box so lets see. Thanks
