Are not eating or drinking.It become apparent that they are quite abit smaller and tonight when I got home from work I can tell they are weak.I got some poultrydrench down little drop on the side of their beaks with h20 but both look weaker and weaker.The rest are eating and drinking.They hatched out thurs.and frid last week.
 
Check for pasty butt.
Are there other chicks in with them? If so, put the two in something together, but seperate from the other chicks so you can monitor their poo...
Are they on medicated feed?
Are they staying warm enough?
Do they drink at all on their own?

I always start with Poly-vi-sol (no iron) vitamin drops and give a drop at the beak 3 times a day.
