Hey, I have five chicks, the first one had some kind of illness I couldn't really figure the illness but it looks contagious but then my other chick started getting as sick at he was, we observed her poop and so she had a slightly bloody one then it changed to orange then it's now brown. Also she started having a seizure three days ago, then stopped then started again today but this time she completely fainted, and kept making some gurgling sound? We gave her electrolytes some yogurt an immunity medicine and some garlic water but we didn't feed her the garlic she kind of gained her conscious a bit but she's still sleeping randomly then walking for a while and so 😞 what is that illness? There are no vets closeby and also is it something contagious? Does that mean the rest of the chicks have it too??? Pls help, I'm sorry for posting alot but they're my first hatch and I really tried to research but I'm still so new to it
 
How old are your chicks?
What kind of hatching eggs did you purchase and where from?
What kind of brooder setup do you have? Please post a picture.
What kind of bedding do you use?
How often do you change the water/clean the waterer?
Do you use a heat lamp?
What is the temperature in the brooder?
What kind of feed do you use?

She's like 14 days old, the brother was 11 days old when he died, they're not purchased my hen hatched her own chicks, 😞 we don't have any beddings or so so I use sand on the ground, she's not in a brooder now I separated her with me. I change their waterer daily. Yep I use a heating lamp, the temperauture is good enough for them I guess since I grew chicks before and they were fine with them, also they grew fine with it and it was the same time of the year when I got them before. We give them eggs bc we can't purchase the medical feed (isn't sold here, and ordering isn't really an option since the transporting fee is larger than the price of the feed itself 🤷🏻‍♀️) and we give them also electrolytes every day or so.

Can you post a picture of her droppings?
And did you check the coop and nesting area for poultry mites and fleas?

They're not raised with older hens or roosters, they're raised inside with us and I checked for insects and also checked for mites and nothing found 😞 (I checked her wings and so and the feathers of her body since she still doesn't have alot of feathers yet but I didn't see anything, also she's not scartching abnormally if that's related ?)
