chick's dying

[e'sbackyardchickens]

Hi we have been raising chick's for years with never a problem. We bought several chick's a few weeks ago and they are great. Thursday we bought two bantam chick's and one died by Friday morning. We went and picked up another chicken yesterday to keep the remaining chicken company. Well, the 2nd chick from Thursday died today. The remaining bantam spends all her time peeping and seems really stressed out. Do you think I should keep her separate from the others just in case she is sick too or should I put her in with them to reduce her stress of being alone. She sounds pitiful. I've put probitiotics in her feed and acv in her water as a precaution.

Thanks in advance.

You might want to keep them separated for a while longer. Give the loner a mirror and a stuffed animal or feather duster for company.
