I NEED HELP! 5 day old chick

[Karenr10292002]

I have a 5 day old chick who can’t stand up. He was walking perfectly fine before but now he is struggling to stand up. He tries and flaps his wings but he just tumbled. I’m not sure what happened to him or how to help I’m new at this and I don’t want to make it worse please help.

What do its legs look like? Are they spread out kinda like it’s doing the splits?

No they look like they are stuck in a seating position

My first thought was straddle leg but I don’t think that’s it.. however, I’m new to this too so I’m not sure. I’m sorry I couldn’t be more help! Hopefully one of these chicken gurus will know!
