Hello everyone,
I've been growing my own flock for a couple of years. This year I hatched a clutch and bought a couple of straight runs from separate farms (3 separate brooders) .Some of my chicks are acting sickly and I've lost a few in each batch , lethargic, not very active, fluffed up in a crouched position, not eating and drinking as much as the others . I've added Corid to their waters for about 4 days in a row.. just added poultry cell today they've been on medicated chick starter since day one.. Changing bedding 3 times a week.. I'm feeling so defeated, I don't know what else to do . What are some other suggestions??
