one more has faded and died, another two are not looking good. I have them separated and under heat lamp - giving them water with electrolytes/vitamins mixed in (a supplement for sick birds that I have for my finches) every hour or so. I'm giving the rest of the chicks the same - what I'm thinking now is - they came in a box with no water or food source - yesterday - Monday - when did they send these babies? Not on Easter Sunday - on Saturday? Good Friday? I hope they didn't send them on Thursday - which would mean they had been in the box with no water for 4+ days. Even if they did send them Saturday it was 48 hours with no water. That can't be good for newly hatched chicks. Not happy, hate to see chicks dying.
