Everything had been going good with batch of 80 broilers, only one lost day 1 which was small and had a gimpy leg. Now after a week I go out to check on them tonight and feathers look rough, lots of chirping, many with messy poop and eyes closed. One chick found gasping on floor and was a goner in minutes.
I'm think cocci?
They were in a kiddy pool inside a mobile brooder 7x8 foot closed in trailer, two 200w heat lamps, roofing felt over pine shavings.
Electrolites and vitamin booster in water
Medicated chick starter.
I don't think there is any sulmet to be had local.
Corrid could be had in the morning.
Any thoughts on treatment. So far I dropped the lamps a little as they were huddling, pulled out the pool to give them new bedding and more space and cleaned out and refilled food and water.
Thanks
