Hello, I recently bought 17 chicks from Meyer Hatchery for certain breeds about 3 weeks ago... going on four
I lost 6 of them 3 were dead on arrival and 1 died a week later. All are well... except this little chick here I think the one of 2 Delaware chicks I ordered and she was fine fine fine until two days ago. She has become wobbly and now sneezing I’m thinking resp. infection but no other chicks have any signs illness etc. the other Deleware chick died unexpectedly but never got wobbly and can’t seem to walk, she runs and falls. This one seems to be eating okay and drinking... I also have been giving her electrolytes as well but not a lot. Her poop is normal etc. I do have amoxicillin if it is a resp. I know there isn’t a whole lot of things you can do with sick chicks but this is my moms favorite. I do have a video but I’m not too sure on how to upload one
