HELP! Chick hatched on day 25. Now cannot uncurl from egg form.

[Esk]

I had 2 Silkie chicks hatch on day 25 the others in that batch hatched on time. When they hatched I had to remove shell fragments from them. One passed in the night but the other is still curled up like it is in the shell. What should I do?? Please help!

He is using his beak to help balance, but falls over if he moves at all. Have been placing him in a cup to get him to “stand”. His feet also seem to be turned over themselves and twisted. Thanks for your reply, I’m just really worried about him

I have given save a chick electrolyte with a syringe and he has drank a little from that. I will try the egg yokes. Thanks so much for your help!!
