I hatched an egg a week ago and my chick was doing great. He was up and running around all the time but I had to move him from my aunts house to mine (2 hour ride). He seemed fine at first but we got more chicks from my friend. They all look healthy but now mine doesnt

he seems very sleepy and mopey. he isnt up and running around or chirpping like he normally does. Can someone tell me if its from the ride or from the other chicks? Can someone PLEASE tell me how to make him better? I have them seperated for now but I dont know what else to do. Please, I dont want to loose him. He is my first chick ever.

here are some pictures of him this morning

The poop loos the same as his. But there were differences in how they were raised. She raises her chicks outside and I raise mine inside. I dont know if that changes anything.
 
He seems to just want to sleep, he hasnt drank or eaten anything sence yesterday. He seems to be getting worse by the minute! I stuck his beak in the water and he just shook his head I tried giving him some yolk but he just layed there. he just lays there with his eyes closed slowly breathing. Please help. I have someone picking up some Sav-a-Chick but if he isnt drinking then what do I do???

sadly he gave up. I am so upset now! he was my first chicken that I have ever hatched. I gues that I will just consentrate on the other chicks that I have.
