Urgent advice needed Please!! 3 day old silkie chick

Oh! So sorry! Did you notice any blood or anything in his/her poop? It might be a good idea to get some Corid.

This is a sad day! Lot's of peoples chicks are getting sick and/or dying!

Thank You Lightchick, I know this happens but it is still hard everytime! Especially when they are so tiny to begin with

Oh I am so sorry for your loss!

It was not your fault! You did everything you could and you did it right.

Thank you Mountain Peeps This is something that ya just never can predict. Thank you again for everything!

well down to 4 now. This last one developed pasty butt two days ago. And died on the 3rd day. As did the other one. Didn't realize they would die from pasty butt. I kept them clean and put olive oil on them. I dunno. Makes me sad.

There is probably something else wrong......

I'd start giving them Corid quickly. When a chick has cocci it doesn't always have blood in the poop. So sorry for your losses! I hope you have no more problems!
