Chick Not Growing, Not Feathering Well... Should I Be worried?

I found him crying on the perch the other day, barely moving, so I brought him inside and warmed him up. Looked like he was doing well, no stinky poop anymore, just normal. Eating, drinking, walking... 4 days later he passed away (yesterday morning). I'm sad, but I thought it might happen. Might've been coccidiosis, but couldn't bring myself to do a necropsy. I don't have any sharp knives anyway. But the rest of the chickens are fine, and he had been like that for a long time. My guess is a genetic defect. That is all.
