    Watery Diarrhea in 3.5 Wk Old Chick(s)

    Wooo that’s HOT! We seem to be on the same page lol. We were at 119 for a few days recently with overnight lows in the 90’s. I can definitely relate, although when we have that heat it’s not humid here. While the chicks may struggle a little bit they’ll be ok, you’re doing a great job! Got any...

    I’m so glad they’re doing good! Ice blocks work well for cooling. I made big ones with some old plastic canisters but you can use sour cream cups and such, bigger is better.

    I would just keep an eye on them then and see if there’s any change and go from there. Diarrhea could be from the heat. My flock drinks a lot of water in summer so I see more loose stools and they can be colorful depending on what they ate. I haven’t ever mixed grit with feed, just dumped it...

    Can you post a pic? Does it look like bloody diarrhea? Corid wouldn’t hurt. Also, do they have grit? If they get anything other than their feed they need it. Chick grit is often available at feed stores.
