Red Production / 18 months / feels thinner

Diarrhea maybe 4 days, other symptoms started yesterday evening and today

I have 12 week old chicks. 2 of them had blood in their stool and started Corid
5) Is there any bleeding, injury, broken bones or other sign of trauma.
No
6) What happened, if anything that you know of, that may have caused the situation.
Nothing

Maybe drinking a little water with electrolytes and chick feed

Yellow/white runny. See pics below
9) What has been the treatment you have administered so far?
See previous answers
Her lower abdomen, in front of her legs, feels like it MAY have some fluid. She was laying every day until last week. After she stopped laying she would still go to the nesting box. She does not have labored breathing all the time. She will not lie down or move, I think she is uncomfortable. She just stares like she in outer space.
