Update: Unfortunately he died.

I have my brooder set up in the laundry room, which is a small room that is easily heated and kept warm. Unfortunately, I went to bed early last night and one of my housemates (who had been doing laundry) didn't remember to shut the door. I went in this morning and the room was chilly. The chicks have a heat lamp and the coturnix are all a-OK but the buttons need it to be much warmer. They look pretty rough - I warmed them back up and used a syringe to give them clean, warm water to rehydrate them. One perked up and looks better but the other is struggling. Is there anything I can do to help perk him up or should I just hope for the best now that he's warm again.
