A week old chick is safer in a nice, clean, heated brooder until after it is 6 weeks old and fully feathered. When housed with mom, it depends on her to keep it warm and teach it to eat. Chicks raised by moms have a greater chance of getting coccisiodis and/or worms. Moms sometimes accidently crush one or more of the chicks, take it outside onto damp/wet grass, etc. If your chicks are housed with mom who is on an adult layer ration, how do you provice chick starter to your baby chickens, and how do you keep them from falling into the adult waterer and drowning?
