Baby chick paralysis please

This was a long time ago but since there's some recent activity I'll update. Two died and the Easter eager and Andalusian survived. I did go back to whereby got them and asked about diseases. They are vaccinated chicks and they say some chicks are just weaker than others and don't survive, they can be a weak animal in the beginning and susceptible to diseases and stress. They replace my two losses free of charge, which was very nice and they were healthy and grew up strong.
I bought more this past fall and from a couple different places. I had one die because of being a severe case of cross beak. I added vitamins to their water for several weeks and not one fell ill. Stress kills chicks, just a simple car ride home can deplete them. This is my experience.
One then fell ill after I stopped giving the vitamins, I separated her and gave sav-a-chick, I was sure it would die but she recovered and to my surprise ended up being a huge beautiful friendly rooster!!!!
Sav-a-chick is wonderful, I recommend using it for a few days at least when you first bring the, home and at the first sign if illness. I truly think its saved several of my chicks. It's a wonderful secret I wish I knew about earlier,

Good luck, raising chicks and chickens is harder than it seems. Especially if you grow attached.
 
Thank you for this update. I was just searching for posts on mild tremors (my chick that doesn't want to walk much) and came across this. We had one loss of a chick that was acting similarly last Saturday, and I'm hoping that the rest of our brood survives.
I'm headed out to the kitchen right now to switch out the regular water for some more with Sav-A-Chick in it.
