Chick not Walking

Chick grit helps them grind down food, so they can digest it. After they're at least 2 weeks old, when you start to feed them things, other than their chick starter, they need the grit.. Put a couple little piles of it on the floor of the brooder, and they'll eat it. I'd get the coconut oil into it. It sounds like it could be having trouble with the mealworms, and possibly constipated too.

I’m glad the poop looked good! Sweet-looking little chick. Maybe it’s uncomfortable with all those undigested mealworms in its craw?
I hope its just digestive issues.
I got a good bit of coconut oil down it with the CC tube so it should be fine on that part.
 
Well, still no change. :/
Mum thought it was silly that I thought it was intestinal problems. All the chick wants to do is stand in the corner. It's eating, but not by itself much. Its also making the tidbitting noise that makes me think its a rooster, and its not getting better nor is it dying.
Great. Just what I needed. A useless rooster I can't breed.
