cannabalism in day old cobb-500 chicken

Published: June 14, 2013

Two days ago 8000 broiler chicks came from Malaysia after a 42 hours journey. They seemed to be highly dehydrated and were initially given water with electrolytes and multivitamin. But within 20 hours they started cannabalism and 7 birds died yesterday. I have not seen such case in that much young bird. everything is according to the instructions but the problem is still there. what may be the cause and what I; in your opinion; should do??
