My chicks are 4 weeks old, they’re each a different breed, but the sf, these past 2 weeks, seems to not be thriving. She just likes to lay down. She’s the smallest now, which she wasn’t for the 1st 2 weeks and some of her wing feathers are missing (I’ve been watching for bullying but I’ve seen her pecking at the spot on her shoulder). I took her out of the brooder to see if she walks fine and she does. Won’t run around though, but goes after the meal worms and eats them. I spoon fed her water with vitamins and electrolytes today. I also researched coccidiosis and took pics of her poop, which isn’t bloody. I don’t know what to do or think about this girl named Mocha. Any advice is appreciated. FYI the brooder is in the kitchen and they’ve only been outside twice and that was the past 2 days. There’s 5 chicks and 2 ducklings together and they’re all the same age. Mocha is the small yellow one in the pics
