My3 Leghorn chicks are breathing fast and making a clicking sound. Could it be a respiratory infection? If so, what should I do? I also have 1 Silver Laced Wyandotte, 3 Red Sex Links and 3 Araucaunas in with her. One of the Leghorns is eating and drinking like normal, the other two are consuming less. Has anyone else ever experienced this with young chicks?



They have puffed up chest feathers and are sleeping while standing up????
