My adults and chicks have been very robust and I got a few chicks and this must have been a mistake. Some of the few chicks I got were many small and unusual. Now it looks like there are a few chicks that are ill. I've seen plain blood and extremely skinny and pale. It's only a few chicks but very concerning. I treated with corrid but only a few chicks have been pooping out blood and not eating.not looking good at all. . I'm really mad that I made a decision to get a few chicks.
 
The chicks are about 2-3 months and all have been very healthy. I bought a few chicks about 2 weeks ago and a couple looked very small but had a lot of feathers. And then I noticed the chicks I bought were very skinny. And then I saw blood and no poop and then just a couple of my chicks that I hatched was pale and droopy and seemed like cocci. But it doesn't seem to help.
 
I keep them in a pen with a wooden floor and they also run around in the yard. They were always healthy until now.
 
I just got this on the computer but this is approximately what it looks like on the pen.

I would suggest you separate the sick chicks from the rest of the flock, urgently. It might be due to the condition of the mother, or it might be a disease. I would also suggest you get a vet to check them out. Chin up! Fluffy
