I have.
I have been giving them a few drops of Nutridrench a day now. Still not eating or drinking.
Later tonight I might very carefully syringe feed each chick 1 mL of water.

I don't know if this will always work, but I've had decent success with it. Is there a possibility of getting a slightly older chick who is already eating and drinking to put in with these chicks to teach them what to do?

I'm behind....I'll catch up tonight.

Which ones do I buy?
Will these work?
I'm thinking the ones that say "branches and stems."

I could try. The only other chicks I have are 3 week old Japanese Bantams.

Maybe try putting them together and see if there is improvement? Then if there's no improvement you can still do the syringe feeding.
