Baby Bantam chick not moving eating or drinking

Any ideas? Desperately want to save it if I can. No poopie butt but the others are energetic and I haven’t seen this one eat or drink.

Did you just bring these chicks home? If so, this one chick may have shipping stress. The cure is warm sugar water, one teaspoon sugar to one cup warm water. Dip the beak a few times to get the chick to drink. If it's too weak to drink on its own, use an eye dropper and place drops on the right side of its beak and it will suck in the solution.

If you have poultry vitamins or infant vitamins, add those to the water.

Often when this happens there is something wrong with them and they just don't make it. But that does not mean you don't try. I suggest you use a medicine dropper or pipette and place a drop of sugar water on the tip of its beak. Then repeat. Don't try to pour liquid down its throat as that could drown it. I use hummingbird liquid as I always have some on hand. Some people use electrolyte solutions. The idea is that the sugar gives instant energy so it feels like eating and drinking on its own. Keep it warm too.

Good luck!
