Lost 6 to Marek's so far. Am I going to lose all 20 to it too?

It could be heat, I guess. I have 2 75w light bulbs for a 4 foot brooder. I turn one off during the day but night I turn both on. I have 2 more that are walking funny but they are still drinking and eating at the moment.

How much of the infant vit drops do you give? Do you administer it to all or just the effected chicks. I really want to get that Avian Charger 2000 (I think that is what it is called), would that help?

lets try a weird experiment, please
take them off the shavings and put paper towels down, for the night, I would be curious to see if maybe there is something in the shavings giving off a toxic fume.
