Our 5 week old chick from TSC (Easter egger?) is not acting well. We just discovered her like this within the last hour.
Hunched back, tail down, slightly off balance, inactive. Occasionally chirping and pumping her tail. Vent looks clean. No signs of mites. She has been the biggest of the 5 chicks we bought but now feels lighter than the others. She seems to be eating and drinking some. We have not seen her poop.
None of the other chicks are showing any signs yet.
Any ideas on what this could be and how we can treat?
