Emergency emu chick in trouble

[5kfarms233]

It cant sit up. It's on its side right now kicking its feet. Seem very weak. Looks like it has a hard time breathing. Was doing fine yesterday, found it on its sit in its box. around 2 weeks.

Pretty light compared to other chicks, not sure its been eating or drinking fully. Seen it do the water head tilt but don't now if it got water

How old is it? Get it someplace WARM if you haven't already. Please tell us, is it in a brooder? coop? incubator? What is the temp? Has it had anything to drink or eat?

There are experts here who can help, but we have to know more. Tell all the details you can, and post a pic or video if possible. (upload video to youtube or similar) and post the link to it here.
