I have a chick I got from the co-op Saturday that was fine when I brought her home, but later that day was lethargic and almost not responsive. I dripped egg yolk, nutri drench, and probiotics on her beak every few hours for 24 hours. She improved, but then I noticed her favoring her left foot and closing it/opening it like it was bothering her. Next day she was eating/drinking on her own but still sleeping a lot and had a limp/trouble walking with her wings out for balance. I separated her from the others with a wire screen so they can't step on her but she can still see them. She’s having even more trouble walking today. I don’t know if another chick stepped on her or if it’s something else. Her legs look the same from what I can tell. Any idea what’s wrong or how to help her walk better/heal?
