This morning, I found one of my three 10 day old coturnix chicks dead in the brooder after seeming a little lethargic last night and now a second one is acting slightly off. They were completely fine until now but within a few hours started laying down more and walking around less, appear less interested in food but still eating, fluffed up, and less alert.

I keep them in a 2.5x1ft brooder with paper towel bedding, heat lamp at 85F, room temp water, and on 30% gamebird feed that’s lightly crushed. Its in my bedroom where it is quiet and warm. I did take the pebbles out of chick waterer since they seemed okay with it and the babies haven’t looked wet at all. Might this be an issue? I also added 2 tsp Corid per gal to their water today since I also have adults outside that have had coccidiosis before. Please help! Any suggestions are appreciated!
