I bought 11 chicks last Friday and one of them i believe had a hard time with the change from heat lamp to ride home to back to heat lamp. Kept rolling over and was on the verge of death. I immediately separated this chick and put it in a separate box upright and kept giving it some sugar water. Much to my surprise it was still alive the next morning. I went to get electrolytes and probiotics but it’s just still not a hundred percent or even 60 really. Any advice on anything else i can do? Today it has started walking with a limp. I would assume it to be only a week old. Thank you!!!
 
Can you take a video or picture? It
Can you take a video or picture? It may be splay legged.
It's not letting me attach a video.. only photos :( It's still alive... I've had splayed legged chicks before... I don't think that's it.. I think it's just OFF... but happy...I put my day old chicks I bought today with it... and theyre picking on it... SAD! ;) We named her Cadette!
 
I suppose she'll be the one who ends up living in the house in a kennel or in the backyard while the rest live with the goats and donkeys... hah
 
You have have to upload to YouTube and share the link here.

I can't offer much help, other than make sure it's eating and drinking. I mixed egg yolk, a bit of sugar and a bit of salt and fed it to a chick of mine that wouldn't eat or drink.
