    Super weak baby chick. Help!

    Could have also been failure to thrive , chicks can be okay without water for short periods . Sorry we didn’t see you in time but you did everything we would have told you to do. Usually by this stage something bigger is wrong and they cannot be saved . I’m so sorry
