Is it ok to treat our 5 day old chicks for Coccidia with CORID? There are no instructions for an animal weighing less than 2.2lb. I'm very concerned.

Hello and welcome to BYC!

What is the temp in your brooder? They could be too hot or too cold. Do they have enough room? 1/2 to 1 square foot per chick is a healthy amount of space. Are they eating and drinking? You need to show them where the water is and tap on the chick food as if you are eating. Keep us posted on how they are doing.
