Like I expected even when they where cuddled up together a few of them still had droopy wings. Again I would like to point out the fact that not they have not all be exhibiting the same symptoms at the exact same time. It doesnt make sense to infer that the issue is heat whenever their wings...

Yes they have all displayed the same behaviour however it is very important to note that the behaviour started with only one chick then spread to the rest the next day. I havent unplugged the lamp entirely however I raised it almost to the ceiling and had the window wide open the other day...

Their nostrils look fine and my phone was unable to pick up the sound of her breathing from that distance but i can assure you its audible in real life. Last night I stopped corrid treatment and have been giving them plain water, the one who is of most concern has started drooping her wings...

I know im new to this but im tired of continually being told they are too hot, I put a thermometer in the brooder like you said and it is currently around 70°F they are only 3 weeks old and from everything i've read 3 week old chicks should be closer to around 75-85°F Now that the temperature...

They have been moved back to the bigger brooder and have stopped tucking their feet however I still checked them and didnt notice anything abnormal looking. I made some changes to the brooder which included adding a roosting bar and higher cardboard walls. There is a cutout at the bottom to...

This is my first time having chicks but i've done a lot of research and I feel like I understand most of the basics, but I know theres still a lot more to learn. Im not sure what your mean by them not matching up? I only sanitized the brooder the very first time I brought it in the house to...

They were in a larger brooder but I moved them to this one because it was easier to sanitize, I havent been sanitizing the brooder itself every day only their waterer once a day. The temp under the lamp is 77° F and and the cool side it 67° F. When they where in the larger brooder they where...

I have a ceramic heater and can buy a dimmer seitch what kind of light is best for them to be able to see

I know they open their wings like that when hot but they've been doing it while standing too which seems very abnormal to me, i just put the thermometer under the light and its reading at 80° F and I have a second one I will be putting on the cooler side

A family friend of ours who used to be a chicken farmer reccomended we disinfect I used bleach heavily diluted to make a mild solution. Other than that i've just been cleaning with soapnand water and disinfecting once a day as reccomended by friend. I havent been giving them any electrolytes...

I have 5 baby chicks that are about 2 weeks old, 2 of them are buff orpingtons and the other 3 are jersey giants. Two days ago one of them started showing signs of sickness, she was not eating and then she started drooping her wings. I know their brooder is not too hot they have plenty of room...
