Sick chicks, is it the ecoglow?

Weird. Hope they are doing OK now! I just lost a chick too!

Sorry to hear it. I ended up loosing four of that first hatch and I still have a couple of runts that I'm not sure will ever grow up healthy and may cull. Some of the stronger ones have funny saggy eyes that don't look normal as well. I've been researching that and haven't come up with much except a lot of people say it's a symptom of mg. I don't know if it all adds up to mg, again, so many questions.

Weird. I hope they start looking better soon!

Ugh, it just keeps getting weirder and weirder. The funny eyes are only the bcm chicks and I found out from the lady I got them from that hers are the same way. Now this one is sick. I'm calling it genetic, probably inbreeding. I had a bcm pullet last year that I was sure had mareks but didn't. Same symptoms with this girl. But as for the rest... I don't know. It's always something.
