Urgent- worrying

[kia2093]

I have two baby chicks that I bought at the local farming supplier store, I want to assume they are like 3 weeks old. My little fat one has been acting weird when it drinks water. I clean their cage daily along with their food and water. Cruz ( my yellow one) is acting normal and never had problems with him. The fat one is the one that just recently started to shake its head when drinking water and it doesn't lift it's neck up all the way. He foams at the mouth when he drinks water and then goes back to normal and walks around. I'm scared he'll die. I don't know what to do, Cruz foamed this morning but he hasn't done it since then. Oh the fat one is called panchon. Help please

Try calling the store where you bought them, and describe the symptoms. They should be able to give you an idea if the chicks in the store developed some sort of illness, or at the least they can tell you what hatchery they bought the chicks from, and maybe the hatchery can give you some help. I don't know, but if you bought them recently, you should be able to find out something by calling. If the store doesn't know what the illness is, call the hatchery anyway and talk to them about it.

The store never told me when they were born, but I bought them last Saturday. Cruz has it's feathers on its wings. I can upload a more recent picture
