Any tips on how to upload a video?

You have to upload to YouTube then link the video.
I know there are other video sites but I don't know what they are.

Yep all is well there. She’s a really nice honest lady so she’s tell me if they weren’t. She’s also going to replace any that don’t make it.

Here’s the video. Don’t mind the fact that it’s upside down. I did my best juggling a 2 year old.

Still it is so hard to watch your babies so sick. I'm so sorry you are having this experience with your first chicks. What is the bedding you are using?

Lethargic, puffed up and bloody stool is a sure sign. You'll probably need to up the Corid dosage.
Make sure the bedding is bone dry.

This X2.
ChickenCanoe gives sound advice.

This is the brooder the healthy ones are in, so actually no bedding. It’s wire bottom. I have the sick ones on pine shavings.
And thank you. This isn’t what I expected!

I must reread the original post. Is your OE the only one with the bloody stools? are the stools of the other chicks okay?
