Can i give my chicks ACV water + Yoghurt mash?

[missalysha]

Hi there, Just wondering if it is okay to give my 2 week old chicks ACV water and plain yoghurt + starter mash at the same time? I believe they have cocci and i am trying to build them up for the night to buy me some time to get the medication tomorrow.
I hope they make it though.. any advice will be great! Including amounts. thanks

I've just gotten new chicks and 2 of them had very watery poop. So, I did the ACV and the yogurt. Plus, I added a hard boiled egg to their diet. One chick is back to normal. The other one is still runny. So, DH went to TCS and got the medicated powder that you add to the water. I am treating all of them just to be safe.

What kind of medicated powder are you talking about? If it's an anti-biotic you could do more harm than good. I would change to feed and plain water for a day or two. That should clear them up. Hope this helps.

Update!

Chicks are doing great... im still not sure if they have cocci or not?!
Well there may be one of them i am suspicious about with the poop being more of a reddish yellow or brown color... i am keeping my eye on her and decided to buy some medication just in case. I wont treat her until i have def seen her poop blood. I have seen the others poop and they look normal.
They loved the yogurt mash and acv water but i only gave it to them for 2 days and then switched back to normal so i could see any changes in their poops. I think they are okay!
