    Lazy or lethargic chick?

    Lazy or lethargic chick?

    Lazy or lethargic chick?

    First time chick mom, we recently got chick's and while one of them is growing steadily(she's actually the biggest out of the bunch we got), she eats and drinks well but she seems to mostly just lay around and not do much. While the others are active and running around she'll join for like a...
