infection could have gone internally, and I don't know of anything as good as blue kote?? He was crushed and in the shell for quite some time, so I would say internally infection is more likely...
Could be crushed lungs, but I would think if that was the case, he wouldn't have make it out at...
Vitamin b is the best thing for leg issues. I take a full pill and drop it in a quart of water. I use vitamin b complete it gives them there niacin and really helps with weak legs. I give it to my day old chickens as well as ducks.
He may need his nostrils cleaned out, he may have some gunk up there or even some blood try taken a qtip and cleaning it keep him warm and see if it doesn't help. I wouldnt worry about it to much he could still be trying to get used to using those little lungs yet.
Once he gets his head up...
Yehhhhhh I would definity give him a drop or two of vitiamin b complete or poutry drench if u have some, polivisol without iron works best for chickens but if that's all you have on hand give him two drops they do not like it.

Peal the hard shell off BUT don't touch that membrane, Then Wet the membrane, let me see what you have. get all the little broken shells off, the reason why is because as he moves, pieces could fall into where he's at and cut a vein we don't want that, so get as many little pieces off, use tweezers.
