    Following this because I have the same question. My chicks are two weeks and I just bought my 2nd bag of medicated starter. I really wanted to get some organic but wasn’t sure how long they need medicated.

    One of my 6 chicks is chirping loudly and breathing heavy

    One of my 6 chicks is chirping loudly and breathing heavy. I pushed the heat source back a little and it seems slightly better since 4 AM this morning when it seemed to be over heated.
