A couple days ago we got chicks. They were pretty young, just 3-4 days and one was even younger, maybe 2 days old. We got 24 cornish cross, and 1 easter egger, 1 lavender orpington, 1 salmon faverolle, and 1 barred rock. They are maybe a week now. This morning they were okay. Eating and drinking and running like usual. I went out there a couple hours later and 15 are dead. Just dropped scattered around the pen. One even dropped into the water and drowned. The alive ones were huddled together (their light was warm and it was pretty warm last night and today) but started to scatter around. They were stumbling around and didnt have the strength to hold themselves up. Two I thought were dead moved when I picked them up. They were dying. I dont know what to do or what caused this.
