Well..Im on a small scale but....given all conditions are good...you shouldn't loose any. Once in a while I'll lose one or two due to accidents or birds getting sick. But usually...once they get a few days old-week+...they are pretty hardy. That's from my experience. Sorry for your loss.
The feed may be the problem. i check the dead chicks and have noticed nothing in the craws. I am feeding a starter/grower. I do see the some of them drinking and pecking away at the feederDo i need to crush it up in a food processor?or what about corn meal or Rice Bran? i have several tons of it from the mill?
