Problems With Vitamins and Electrolytes

[bcmama]

I started giving vitamins and electrolytes in my week old chickens water today and within a few hours I had one chick regurgitating and all four having very runny poo, some even clear. Anyone else experience similar results with it?

Thanks

I dont recommend giving electrolytes or vitamins to chicks unless it's absolutely necessary because they are too rich for their system to handle, hence the symptoms you're seeing.
