Probably Poly-Vi-Sol (without iron), its a vitamin supplement typically found in the baby section of most grocery stores. Or maybe NutiDrench, which you may be able to find at your local farm store.
If your chicks hatch healthy, I wouldn't worry about it. You're already adding supplements to the water, just keep an eye on them to make sure they're drinking, eating and clean them up if they get pasty butt.

Good luck
