Broken or sprained leg in 1 day old chick?

[naparocks]

My chick order arrived today (yay!) and one of them has a bad leg. It is not eating or drinking like the other chicks and it is favoring the leg. Upon close inspection it appears to have a bruise or some other type of discoloration and swelling. Not sure what to do. I've attached a picture.

Can you get some poultry Nutri-Drench?
It looks like this:#3

There is nothing open here now. I have been trying to give it Durvet electrolytes/vitamins but it won't take it from a syringe. It won't raise its head now.

Keep her warm and comfy with acces to food and water. Some times I use and eye dropper with electrolyte water and force feed them. Also try giving her some raw egg mixed with chick feed and electrolyte water....

Thank you. I'm afraid she passed away before this post. I was able to get some water and electrolytes in her but she went down pretty quickly. I feel pretty awful about it

Try not to feel so bad.
Things like this just happen.
