    Baby chick's dying!! help

    Their temp is good. They don't stay huddled up. We clean their bedding every 2 days. I'm wondering if it can be Cocci?! They seem fine then get weak and fall over. Just kinda lay there and let other chick's walk over them. If that what it is can my healthy chick's catch it?
