Red ranger chick approx 5 days old, showed symtoms starting today, can't walk head down, was in with another red ranger and a jersey giant chick all appox. same age, other 2 are now showing any symtoms, eating non medicated crumbles (chick starter), was on pine shavings, tries to get up but flops around and falls back down. any suggestions as to what this problem might be. I have seperated it from the others now.
