Again, my baby isn't doing well still, no longer eating and forcing it to drink. its eyes are always closed and it is always crying, its droppings are yellow and sticky.

what should I do, I am getting a cage ready for isolation.

I would try vitamins for her....is she on medicated chick feed? I guess chicks are very susceptible to coccidia so maybe try to see if that is the issue?
If she seems weak you can try to get some pancake syrup into her for a quick boost of energy...wish I had more help for you, but sometimes chicks are so fragile it is hard to get a recovery when they are ill. good luck
 
I do have syrup and I will try that, yes they are on medicated feed and constant fresh filtered water(Since we have a well)
I will try to syrup.

Thank you!
 
Dehydration? Sounds like Cocci.
How would it get Cocci without coming in contact with it? I know none of my hens have it and they have never touched outside grounds...I pulled all of them away within hours of hatch.

I have liquid corrid but very little like not even a cc.
All the other chicks are doing great.
