Thanks for your help but he’s gone and happy holidays

I think he’s gone His legs went stiff and his eyes are half closed and glazed over

He was most likely a chick who had underdeveloped organs that shut down. I know how devastating that can be though. I’m sending you hugs

It's really hard to help you when you have 3 threads going on the same topic. Can you ask a moderator to combine them? You'll get better help that way.

Looks like it is just a fail to thrive situation. Poor baby.

He keeps cheeping and trying to move is there anything I can do?

You could try to give him some save-a-chick with a dropper. Just one drop at a time and leave enough time in between to allow for proper swallowing or you might make it worse.

Feel the crop, is it normal compared to the others or doughy or do you feel something hard?

It’s empty and where can I get that ?

Well, I just saw your other thread where you posted that your cat has gotten into the chick bin, so I suppose that the problems stem from your cat injuring it severely.
