One of my chicks is acting funny she seems off balance when she tries to walk then just lays down poop looks normal to me. Any advice would be great for some reason I can’t upload video
Edit: she is 3 wk old barred rock has been eating dumor chick starter with access to a chick stick treat she was given save a chick this morning on my way to check on her now

Update- she’s moving a little more but still unstable when trying to walk she’s fluttering around a bit when she wants to get somewhere I have ordered liquid vitamins w/out iron and I have given her some electrolyte water honey and acv mixed with some warm water which she willing drank from a syringe. She’s pecking at food and seems alert her poop is still normal looking.

More information is needed, like her age, breed, diet, and free-range environment (if they are ever free ranged). She might be sick or had an injury, so has anything happened to her recently to possibly injure her? Any stressful events or drastic changes in weather?

She’s a 3 wk old barred rock the only thing that has happened was my meshing that covers fell into the brooder last night and separated them for a couple hrs at most. They eat dumor chick starter and they have access to a chick stick treat that hangs
