Got home from work and I noticed I lost two chicks and one had his feathers ruffled. The other chicks were running around fine. The poop looks off to me, I don’t think watery poop is normal

Yes I can , is it coccidia ?Can you get corid?
It wouldn't hurt to treat if that's the issue.Yes I can , is it coccidia ?
I just got them this week so I’d say 5-6 daysHow old are the chicks? Corid is good to use if coccidiosis could be a problem. Dosage is 2 tsp of the liquid or 1.5 tsp of the powder per gallon of water for 5-7 days as the only source. It doesn’t hurt to treat them. Sorry for your loss. If you are up to it, you could open the bellies of the dead, and look for swollen blush intestines. Cut them open and look for bloody tissue. Here is some reading:

I actually figured out the problem , it was pasty butt. She wasn’t doing good at all. She trying to poop and it was clogged all up. I checked her before I went to work and everything was okay. Well gave her butt a good soak and helped with 3 poops last night. Checked on them this morning , she doing a lot better , she’s eating and drinking this morning.Can you get corid?
Thank you , I do have both. I’ll put a little on her buttPasty butt can keep occurring for up to 10 days. A little olive oil or coconut oil in or on feed might help lube. Don’t overdo it though.
