I have six beautiful chicks I bought from a feed store two weeks ago exactly. I believe they are 2 1/2 weeks old. They have been full of energy and really spunky since the beginning. Thriving and growing. Today I noticed one of my Barred Rock chicks looks really sick. She is sleeping all the time and hardly even opens her eyes when I walk in. When I pick her up she doesn't even protest. Her poop is liquid and white. When I put her down tonight she took a few steps and put her wings down for balance. So far the other chicks look healthy. She's not swollen anywhere that I can tell and her butt is clean. Any ideas?

Liquid and white??? hmmm, She might be weak because shes not eating,. Possibly seperate her, And offer her chick starter, Scrabbled eggs, Suger water.... Dip he break in the sugar water.
 
Could this be cocci? Are they on medicated feed? Are they indoors or out? Have they been outdoors at all?
