I just hatched my first chicks…
We have 7 of them and I’m noticing a lot of runny poop and some green poop. Is this normal for newly hatched chicks?
I’m feeding them magic water…in replace of electrolytes, which has ACV, honey, garlic and water in it. Wondering if this is causing upset?

I wouldn't feed them all that . I use nutridrench for stressed chicks after travel and sometimes probiotics but I alternate the two. Magic water sounds like a lot of things they don't need mixed into something they do. Are they eating?
 
They need chick starter/grower food & water with electrolytes not "magic" water.
It's very likely causing their poop issue. ACV (unfiltered) with water (1T/gal) would help with pasty butt but the garlic maybe too much for their young system.
What are you feeding?
