Out of 17, 6-week old chicks, I have one that appears to have failure to thrive, walks like a drunk person-possibly neurological condition. She has incomplete feather grown and is much shorter and delayed in growth in every way. She eats and drinks fine. She has to be separated from the others as the picked and pecked on her a lot. Upon through inspection, I cannot find a reason as to why. Any thoughts?

Failure to thrive is frequently the result of a congenital problem which eventually results in the death of the chick.
