Last Saturday, i bought 11 chicks, and by the time that they were 6 days old 6 had died. It wasn't from dehydration or hunger, i saw all of them eating and drinking. I'm not sure how this happened but they just died. I have never had this happen before. I even had 48 chicks delivered from cackle and only 2 died. I bought these from a private farm, so I was wondering if maybe the chicks from a hatchery are able to build up better immune systems than the ones from the private farm. The 5 that lived were slightly older so maybe that may be why they lived. Please help me, i am at a loss.
