Chick poop

[whiskaye]

Yes. Electrolytes especially are not intended for long term use. I just use water from my tap, if you trust it enough to drink then it's fine for chickens.

Ok just hesitant to stop with the nutri drench due to the loss of multiple chicks and the stool from the one I posted for

Doesn't look like coccidiosis poop (which normally looks like a straight up blood splatter) but it doesn't always present as bloody stool either. And with no outside exposure it's unlikely to be coccidiosis. Not impossible, just unlikely.

Also note what I previously said:

Reason you don't want to introduce anything with extra vit B (i.e. Nutri-Drench) is medicated feed (at least in US) includes a coccidiostat like amprolium which is a thiamine inhibitor. By adding extra vit B you're adding extra thiamine to the mix.

IF you feel this is coccidiosis do not add anything that adds extra vit B, or you're negating the effectiveness of the Corid. You are using Corid or some other coccidiostat to treat it right? Medicated feed only provides a moderate dose of coccidiostat and is not meant to treat active cases of coccidiosis.

Not sure why you've had so many losses. What, if anything, did you notice before the chicks died? Lethargy, weird poops, strange noises or behaviors? if nothing, then we need a lot more details to troubleshoot: what types of chicks, how long had they been at the store before purchase (i.e. did they put out newly shipped chicks without giving them recovery time?), what feed are you using and mill date (is it fresh?), your brooder set up with photos, measurements, temperatures. You mentioned chicks being aggressive with one another, but that's about it - were they killing each other? You also mentioned using a brooder plate but also that temps were 80-90F, is it possible they overheated?
