New chicken farmer

These chicks seem to be the only ones dying (3 have died) are we do doing something different from the rest of them causing them to be sick and die?

Welcome!

As you have already received some great advice and links, I will just wish you all the best.

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun. Unlike non chicken loving friends, family and colleagues, BYC’ers never tire of stories or pictures that feature our feathered and non feathered friends

Ok so here I am again with two questions
1. How do I create another forum or new page?
2. Can anyone help me identify/sex my bared rock chicks?

1 - are you talking about starting a new thread in a different part of the forums (ie the "what breed/gender is this" for your question about the chicks you have now) - if so, you go to that section of the forums ( https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/15/what-breed-or-gender-is-this ) and then click the "start a new thread" button on that screen

2 - with production bred/hatchery stock BR the only way to sex them beyond the vent sexing that may have been done at the hatchery (were they marked as pullets or straight run?) is to wait for them to mature to 6+ weeks and evaluate based on characteristics - if you take/post photos of them at that point we can certainly help you.

Ok thank you for both your answers and as of right now they are 2 weeks so I'll keep doing a week by week post, if it might help.
