Chickens I have been raising poultry for 6 months now but faced with disease challenges.

My chicks died with symptoms such as watery eyes, blocked nostrils with powder like substances, loss of weight and growth of some powder around the beaks hence loss of appetite eventually death.

How can I overcome this please?

Kindly have your poultry vaccinated and maintain hygiene in your farm. The best way is to observe bio-security (keep entry to the poultry unit at most minimum) . Remember at the back of your mind that treatment for poultry diseases is always effort in futility and very frustrating therefore prevention is the best approach. For more information check on the education and resource information above for vaccination program
