Damn had this happen to a chick when he was two weeks he made clicking sounds when breathing it’s not the heat the chicks need to be 95 to 90 degrees when they are that young mine died the day after. The manager at TSC said it’s was coccidia so I got corid he also has chickens. When a chick is severely sick of coccidia give them 2 DROPS for a big one think one for a little chick. I had a hen die of coccidia aswell she had eyes closed didn’t eat nor drink it was terrible if you can look at one of my threads it’s called red poop I think it scars just seeing it what a terrible day that was
