That is one heck of a long list of things to go wrong ........  All the best! How are things today, BB? All fine  OH took my alarm away while I was sleeping to let me get some sleep and fed the chick. The formula was a little thick so Dilly couldn't digest it easily. When I realized that later, I fed her some drops of warm water and things were back to normal soon. But man, did Dilly make a fuss about it  OH meant well, BB. You will have to give her proper lessons ...... a problem shared is a problem halved. |

You are simply incredible BB. Dilly seems like a fighter doesn't she. Another great story to follow (love your baby hand rearing stories, even though they usually start out sad - sorry about your hen). Don't know if I could cope with the hourly feeding, hats off to you!

So, so tiny. Why do you think it's a girl? Because I haven't seen a chick this little making so much fuss about small things and making angry noises |

You will have to give her proper lessons ...... a problem shared is a problem halved. Absolutely right Hezz, she won't even hold her when I am around. She offers me to do other stuff like making food or cleaning brooder etc, instead of just holding her in hands wrapped in kitchen towel. But somehow managed to feed her  |

Thank you Dilly is very strong and way ahead for her age in everything Unfortunately it's the hard circumstances which force me to hand-rear chicks. |

Who? OH and I, or Dilly you do make me smile BB...you are very Cheeky but very funny  We all try to cheer each other up, either by buds stories or humor. That's what makes this a very friendly and caring place I am worried all the times though that I may offend someone. |
