Peachicks weight

Wondering, they are supposed to be purple. There is a lot of white on two of them. What does anyone think about the color?

Can you post more pictures?

Yes I took more yesterday. There is regular good poop in general but I found the watery in the bottom everyday.

I spoke with the two Avian Vets and they can't get the chicks in today and won't test the poop without examine the chicks. Both are getting back to me with an alternative once they speak with the Vet.

They are supposed to be purple. They are very lite cream. I've read that purple chicks seem to be the same color as cameos. Don't know, I guess this is a tough learning curve.

The chicks look "scruffy" to me, and given their low body weight, I think it would be wise to get them in to see a vet. If you can't, you should probably start them on Corid or a sulfa drug and treat for coccidiosis.

They are very 'scruffy'. Do it put it in their water? Tractor Supply is literally across from our street. I'm heading there now.
