Baby Chick around 6 weeks, is very sick! Coccidiosis treatment started but could it be a deficiency?

When they drink too much water their poop will be loose

Maybe that's my fault. I hold Tooki up to drink water every hour or so and maybe that is too much for her? How much water do baby chicks generally consume per day?

Baby chicks drink very little not even a cup ..a chicken whose mature can drink a liter only when they are free range and water source avail.
Otherwise chicken drink half bowl

My roosters are mature they only drink 2 cups

Ooohhh I see. Its just whenever I hold Tooki above the water she drinks a lot and is very thirsty, probably because she cannot drink on her own.

I understand. I was so scared that she might get dehydrated because she couldn't drink on her own..

Actually, I am not really interested in the eggs that they will lay since I am a Vegetarian and don't consume eggs. So, should I still follow the diet given here?
