Help!

[Kirsten1884]

Found 2 of my chicks dead this morning and a third is acting weird. Wont drink anything, seems very weak, and just lays under the heat lamp. They were acting fine yesterday so I have no idea what happened. Any suggestions on what to do? They are a little over 2 weeks old.

What temperature is the brooder? If you have some milk or buttermilk, i would give them some by mouth. Then I would go to your feed store and pick up some Corid liquid or powder, and treat for coccidiosis. Mix 2 tsp of the liquid, or 1.5 tsp of powder in 1 gallon of water, and treat all for 5 days. Syringe feed them if they aren't drinking, since they must drink it. Are they having diarrhea or any blood in the stools?
