please see post #15.

Oh wow. I never knew this. I have corid here. Im going now to put some in water. I brought them in a bit ago and put under heat lamp. It's suppose to be 30 tonight and I found one dead. So maybe heat and corid will fix this.

Now if it is cocci will ally babies catch it? I have 12 in another brooder and eggs on bator and many eggs coming soon. What dobi do to prevent this again

If one batch of chicks gets it and another batch is not exposed to the first batch, I don't treat the other ones. But I treat everyone in the flock who is on the same ground, running together, with Corid. It really spreads like wildfire, in my experience.

Are your babies any better today?

Most are looking a lot better. Running and trying to jump out of brooder. There's still one or 2 maybe that's sitting around all puffy but maybe the meds will kick in. I just hope all my other chicks don't start getting sick. I added corid to all my chicks water today and will do that for about a week to help with prevention.

You need to put antibiotics in there water. I use Duramycin-10 for chicks and full grown chickens when one comes down with something
