So our baby chick is laying there moves very little and keeps opening its mouth and every 5 to 10 seconds let’s put a large chirp. Won’t move to eat or drink so we are having to force it water and every now and again sugar water. For food we have been giving it some egg yokes cause that’s what we have read online to do. Any help would be appreciated.

How old is it?
You need to be extremely careful with forcing anything into a chick's mouth because if you get one drop down the wrong pipe you will kill it.

It’s about a week old

We don’t really force anything down just kinda get a drop by the front of the beak and let it take it down
