Illnesses of the digestive tract are the most common diseases in young chicks. Most chicks ordered through hatcheries are given medication to prevent many of the most common ailments such as the virulent and contagious Marek's disease. A general antibiotic treatment in water soluble form is a good preventative way to ensure newly hatched chicks on a small farm are offer the same protection. Chicks that develop respiratory ailments can be treated with a small amount of cider vinegar in their water supply for a few days.
