6 week chick - leg problem

[amanda223]

Came home to my six week old chick sitting in the corner not moving. She can’t walk and seems to not be able to stand on one leg. Brought her in the house, no visible injury. She’s eating and drinking. She tries to stand and it’s like her one leg slides right out in front of her. Any thoughts? What can I do to help?

It could be mareks. How is it doing? A vitamin deficiency is also a possibility. I would try some daily poultry vitamins to see if it improves.
