My little serama hatched 1.5 hrs ago has been stuggling intermittently the last 30 min to get flipped over off its back. I still have eggs pipped not hatched. Should I help him?

Should I separate him from the bigger chicks?

It was getting around earlier.
 
Thanks for that. I already moved him out to the brooder b/c I couldn't stand to see the other (big) chicks trampling over him. I think something might be wrong with his right side -- wing seems funny there & right eye is droopy.

I'm grateful for any info on seramas. I wish I hadn't tried to incubate them with big chicks.

The other two seem to be holding their own fine for now.
