4 week old chicken, alive, but just lying there, the other 12 are okay

probably not!

She's drinking by herself! Last night I though she was dying, couldn't even hold her head up. She may recover!

You could try to give her a drop or two of Poly-vi-sol (no iron) baby vitamins on her beak and a bit of yogurt mixed with oatmeal and chick starter. My chicks perk up with that. Good luck!

I will try the baby vitamins. Though she isn't eating at all - I am forcing her to drink a watered down soy shake. If she won't start eating soon, I don't think she's going to make it.

She is starting to eat by herself! And she is grooming a little! Maybe she will live.

Thanks to all who offered suggestions and support.
