Baby Chicks, can they get mange?

[pattee]

I have 2 week old babies... and 2 of them are losing their feathers around their mouth. It's sticky there also. I'm just wondering if any of you know of this... I'd hate to have my whole 7 chicks have something that would wipe them out.

Thanks

Not sure but hopefully someone else chimes in that knows!

Thanks...
The people at the feed and seed store can't figure it out either...
