I dont know what is wrong with it,it wont drink or eat. it is VERY weak. It is barely breathing. It is less than one week old, we have them inside the house with a small heater in the room. One already died last night. I am not sure what to do. PLEASE ADVISE!!
 
Iis Unnable to hold its head normal anymore, it is holding it way far back....didnt know if that info would be helpful
 
A heater in the room is not going to keep a chick warm enough.
Good catch! X2, chicks that young need it to be about 90-95 degrees it think, then minus 5 degrees each week. Don't quote me on that, just look it up.

the room is at a steady 98...does anyone know what to do about pasty butt, because i think that has something to do with out loss. 2 of the 4 chicks are going good...but they are still getting poop stuck to their bottoms until we are having to wash them up, any suggestions??? Please

That could mean they have coccidiosis. Treatment for coccidiosis is amprolium (Corid or Amprol).
