Rock cross chicks from rural king SICK!!!!!!!!!

[TOP KNOT]

I am not very happy right now. I bought 30 chicks and 3 turkeys from the rural king. The first day home I noticed 2 sneezing. Now (6 days later) many are sneezing, and 1 died who was one of the first to sneeze. Its little throat was full of mucus. I think that they have infectious bronchitis(cold) These chicks are in a brooder in the shop not near the other chicks or chickens. I hope this dosent move through the air and infect the rest of my flock! They don't take proper care of them at the store, they always seem huddled and cold, out of food and the water dirty.

I should have paid more and ordered them from Murray McMurray like I did my layers!!!!! What was I thinking??????? I have them on a probiotic and vit/electrolite in their water. Thanks for the vent!

That's rough, I feel bad for the poor chickens still at the store (and all the future ones!) Have you complained to the management or pointed out the poor conditions to their employees? I would raise a big old fuss if I saw that.... I'm trying to think if there's anyone you could call, like the ASPCA, but for chickens?
