I have 17 chicks that are 3 weeks old. A few of them have runny poop. Is this normal? They eat a whole seed feed that is soaked overnight and blended to make the bits smaller. They have been outside on grass once sort of..They barely left the box. Today I put out the more robust chicks outside in a cage set on plywood. I was cleaning their box every other day but have started to clean it daily as it stinks!!. The inside conditions are getting crowded. And the larger ones will be spending more time outside. They all seem to be eating and drinking and they look healthy.
Do they need any medication to stop the diarrhea?
2nd question has anyone ever had a chick with a tail that bobs? When it sits on my shoulder its breathing sounds a little rattly. I named it Mini since it is 1/2 the size of the other hatch mates. Any ideas??
Thanks in advance to all who reply.
