Chick keeps falling over

[Wibbis]

Hey guys. I'm new here. I'm new to chickens. I have a group of 13day old chicks and one isn't doing well. She keeps laying down/falling over. She takes a few steps then lays down. She can still get up and walk if really needed but she doesn't move as much as the others. I haven't done much to help her to this point because it's just something I'm convinced of today. She does appear smaller than the rest of the flock.

Can you research wry neck to see if that could be a possibility? I can’t help much without videos or pictures. Is there poop normal?
(No diarrhea, blood, or unusual coloration?)
Are they hydrated, and have good food?

Here is some pictures and video. She has clean water and I am feeding Purina medicated crumbs. She did have some issues with poopy vent soon after getting here but she hasn't ever thrived

I would give the chick 2-3 drops of Poultry Nutri-Drench twice a day.
You should try to get some water down the chick. This probably means a drop at a time.
Then you could mix up some wet chick food for it.

If you don’t have Nutri-Drench, you can get it online or from Tractor Supply. If you can’t do either of those things, sugar water may help as well.

If she’s the second chick in that third photo, she has spraddle leg! I’m on my first chicks ever also, at 4-5 weeks now. One of mine got spraddle leg at the exact same age. I took a basic brown bandaid, cut lengthwise in half bc it was too wide, and splinted her legs correctly. Did it for 3 days. 3 weeks later and she’s walking fine. Keep us updated!

She is a cinnamon queen if that matters.
