Sick chicks

[Chickybabies0423]

I really need some help I recently bought 10 baby chicks. 6 from TSC and 4 from a breeder. The 6 from TSC I had a week and decided I would like some colored egg layers and found a breeder near me. It was a 2 hour drive to get the chicks and when I got them home one was very lethargic which I thought was from the ride. After vitamins and electrolytes there was no improvement and now we are 3 days in and she has crackling when she breathes and the others are sneezing with crackling as well! What should I do? I know this chick came to me sick and when I research it it sounds like Infectious bronchitis. When I contacted the breeder she told me that’s rare In chicks and that’s it.... now my question is can I even introduce them to my their flock because now they are carriers for life and won’t that make them sick? what should I do to treat them? HELP!

Oh my gosh that's supposed to similar to a situation I'm in right now that I thought it was a post I posted I bought six Mixed Chicks from Tractor Supply and then bought some Easter Eggers from a local breeder which are about three weeks older than the chicks at Tractor Supply everyone was doing fine up until a few days ago one of the chicks started acting lethargic with its eyes closed it's eating and drinking but definitely isn't improving. Everyone is telling me to give it corid which is what I'm recommending to you I gave it in the water yesterday so far no improvement... good luck and keep me posted and vice versa
