I am sorry you lost chicks. Mine were okay when I checked on them around 8 tonight. I have been freezing bottles of water & dropping the frozen ice into there water containers. I am also adding the save a chick mix to the water & changing it at least once a day. My pens are located in a wooded area so they do not get a great deal of direct sun beating down on them.

I got it at Tractor Supply. It comes as 3 small packets attached. I think it was $1.99. I think I read you also need to give them untreated water at the same time.
