Baby chicken needs help

Where are you located? Can you go and buy a bag of chicken starter grower feed or a bag of Purina Flock Raiser feed? Does your mother have any vitamin B complex or nutritional yeast? Chicken feed would be best for her, but she could have a very small amount of cooked liver, hamburger, or scrambled egg, which has some riboflavin.

Can you first get her drinking some water or Gatorade? Once she drinks some, then offer some very wet feed. Stop feeding corn to your chickens. It is not a complete or balanced feed. It lacks in protein, vitamins, and minerals.

I also wonder if she could have coccidiosis or possibly has a failure to thrive problem. Is she thinner that the others? What does her poop look like? Will she eat?

Yes she is thinner and she does eat but not a lot and she does drink a lot of water also sad to see this part of the post
 
Can you ask about getting some Corid from the feed store today, and start her on it for coccidiosis? Mix it in the water 2 tsp of Corid liquid per gallon of water or 1/2 tsp per quart, for 5-7 days. In addition to that give her 1/4 tsp of the undiluted Corid twice a day for several days.

View attachment 2012494she isn't moving from this position and I don't know what's the matter with her if anyone has anything to say in the matter please help
I believe she is about to be 6 to 8 months old eats and drinks she doesn'y have any discharge from her nose mouth or anything I feed her somewhat cracked corn and she is being raised indoors and yes she does let me straighten her legs out without pain my mother believes that she is being pecked by the others which I didn't think about that myself because she was not squawking or chirping loudly to the point to where it sound like she was getting injured
Can you clarify her age? She's 6 to 8 months old?
