are you talking about apple cider vinegar which is supposed to be  helpfull for chickens guts? or do you mean (and I hope you don't) to kill the chicks?
Staffies are softer than you think.

at this stage I would just give your chicks chick crumb and plain water (make sure the water is in a chick drinker or a shallow dish which has marbles or similar in as they can drown).

I agree with Joyfull, water and chick crumb, leave in inncy for 24hrs so they are properly dry and then move to brooder, they don't need food for first 24 hrs as they are still absorbing the yolk.
Whats the poll for??????
And whats the vinegar for????
Dont count ya chickens till they hatch!!!!!
