2 week old ISA Brown, eating and drinking fine. No pasty butt. Right foot slightly more pale than the left, three grey spots (tinier than a pin prick) on the pad, and she refuses to put weight on it. She's about middle-sized compared to her flock mates, but they've started pushing her around and stepping on her when she's laying down. At the suggestion of another thread I gave her 1 ML of gatorade last night. She's alert but likes to sleep a lot. She shakes a little when laying down.

There are 13 chicks in the brooder with plenty of space to roam. Food and Water are elevated to back height, temp is good, shavings changed every other day. They get Manna Medicated Feed.

Please help me! I'm brand new to this and determined not to lose a chick.
 
Sounds more like an injury. Was it dropped? Or could have gotten a leg hung up. It should heal with time.
