I shouldn't have called them chicks, lol, they are around 4 and a half months old. I have a heat lamp in their coop with them. I make sure it's on if I know it's going to be below 40°. There aren't any poisons or anything around that they could've gotten into. No other signs of distress that I can see. I just don't know what in the world could be wrong with them.How old are they, and are they having any other signs of distress?
Mold, rat poison, other toxins can cause paralysis. But first thing that comes to mind is cold. If they don't have a broody and are not fully feathered, they may just be losing too much body heat to function.
