Keep him inside to cool off, and offer him water. If you have some SaveAChick electrolyte, add some to his water, or you can also give him Pedialyte or Gatorade. Hopefully he will perk up soon. Keep him quiet, but keep giving him the fluids every hour today. Make sure that you have plenty of shade for you chickens and their water, or you can use tarps or tables to help. Change the water in the afternoon or add ice to it. Hopefully he will feel better soon.
