first is it chicken chicks or turkey chicks?
how old are these chicks and what kin?
coccidiosis is very harmful to any chicks
you got to medicated them with amproylium powder immediately
by the 4 day they will be dying
I would get corid amproylium or some kind of amproylium
from a vet
immediately
and use it in the wet mash recipe I giver
1qt of dry crumbles
2 qts water
in 1/2 of the water put 1 tsp of the amproylium ow mix with dry crumbles and use rest of water to make a nice wet medicated mash
feed 1 tbsp per chick per turkey and get them going on medication
in the water put the medication of amproylium I would use 2 tsp per gallon of water to medicated them for two days then the 1 tsp of amproylium per gallon of water per day
feed the medicated wet mash for three days and then just the medicated water for 7 dyas
besure and medicated wet mash for three days
and medicated water for full seven days
this will get them over the coccidiosis
all turkeys and chicks need medicating
Some information for you to read to teach your self on coccidiosis

Tis shows the turkeys had coccidiosis and your chickens could get the kind they drug home.
Do medicated for this
you may have to call Smiths Poultry Supply for amproylium if your vet doesn't have it. I would try the vet as time is important to NOT losing all of the birds
