I think I am losing one of my chicks :(

One of our SLWD is pooping almost pure blood, very lethargic, not wanting to eat or drink very much.....

Picking up some medicated feed in hopes of saving the rest.

Is there anything else I can do or just let nature take it's course??

I'm so sorry. This is only my second year with chickens and my first with egg layers but I know how hard it is to watch them be sick when they are so young. My heart goes out to you.

Second post down is how to treat it. Good luck, sorry you're having issues.

Thank you both. I just watched Brownie Pie, one of our EEs, poop blood too. She has now joined the other in isolation.
