Hi Amanda
rehydrating them as fast as possible will increase your chances. If they
are alive there is hope. Try offering them drops of Pedialite. You might
even try soaking them in a very shallow dish of pedialite.
You can also try smearing small amounts of chicken baby food on their noses
for them to lick off. Good luck
