Baby Chick just kinda scoots around and doesn’t eat

I’m sorry but it looks like the chick won’t make it through the night. She’s not drinking the sugar water or Gatorade, she’s not eating, she barely opens her eyes, and she won’t walk. I just tried to make her comfortable as possible and hope she makes it to tomorrow .

I’m so sorry, we had two like this, late hatchers. Feet seemed too big and couldn’t walk. The other chicks attacked them and they were distressed so we humanely culled them. I was broken hearted but they were not going to make it. I had no idea how heartbreaking incubating can be though it has been worth it for the healthy 3 I have.

Thank you everybody who helped us on this post. I’m really grateful for the tips, but she did sadly pass away today.

Aw so sorry just saw this. It’s heartbreaking isn’t it
