Hi, my week old bantam chick is very lethargic, pooping completely white, and he will not get up or walk, he will not open his eyes either, we gave him some honey diluted water to get him going and that seemed to help wake him up, he’s chirping a bit right now but mostly sleeping, any advice please? Also once in a while he makes a clicking with his throat by opening his mouth.

I'm not sure what might be going on.

You mentioned unusual poop, so that makes me think Coccidiosis possibly.

How old is the feed? Is the feed spoiled? Any sign of mold, or moldy smell?

What brand of chick feed are you feeding, & have they been given anything besides chick feed?
No mold or anything, it’s sealed shut and it’s about 1/2 a month to a month old.
 
Have pictures of the bird in question?

I'm so sorry this is happening.
Where did you get it? When?
