I have noticed that on my 4-5wk old chick as well! For the last 2ish days he/she's refusing its food but acting hungry. I'm not sure what to do as the my other two slightly younger chicks are eating fine, so I don't think it's anything I'm doing wrong! I don't want to force feed the poor thing, but am going to have too, otherwise it will starve to death! :o :(

Sanjay demolishes swings with wooden fruit flavoured blocks of wood, and I get a neat little pile of sawdust on the bottom of his cage, :D :D
