Yes, sometimes it happens.....

Good luck on your order! After getting your order, I'd recommend giving the chicks some sugar water, then 2.5ml of corid (liquid form) per quart of water for 4 days. If they are acting sickly.

Some of my chicks had foamy and milky feces, and started to act lethargic. However, I gave them the corid and they perked right up within a few hours! I did have do beak dipping into the corid water for a few hours, to make sure the medicine was drunk.

All the chicks are strong and healthy. I will order from Mt. Healthy from now on

Good luck on your order!

Thank you! I picked up my non-medicated chick feed this weekend and will be ordering corid today!
