What happened to his eyes and legs?
There was mucus coming out of his eyes. I removed mucus on the right eye with warm damped q tips, theres still some on the left. And the leg was probably from his sister that pecked him, I stopped them from pecking eachother if they did it infront of me, but I didnt see anything wrong with his legs until now.

I am really new to this but this same thing happened to my ones when they had pox. Lets wait for someone experienced to see this. @cavemanrich can you help us please?
 
Your poor chick either has a respiratory infection or an eye infection. The leg damage looks like pressure sores from laying on his side for a prolonged period with no bedding. The keel bone is very pronounced.
I personally think the kindest thing to do for this bird is to euthanize it. I'm sorry.
