Intro and requesting help!

Hello all chicken lovers out there! I have quite a few young chickens. This particular one, I thought was a boy, is acting egg bound.... he doesn't move, closing his eyes, and trembling all over. I did put him in warm water, just in case but i know hes a boy... any ideas what i can do for him???

Can you post a pic of this bird? How old? What are you feeding exactly including treats? How hot is it where you are and do your birds have enough shade etc? Could he have gotten into any toxins such as mold? How long has this been going on?

I do g think this sounds like egg binding. I’m worried about toxins especially if it came in suddenly.

I bought him at 2 weeks old in February 2022. Not sure if hes a bantum or a silkie.... i feed plenty of scratch but i also feed black sunflower seeds, oats, 10 grain, cracked corn and i throw crumbled oyster shells in their cage about every 2 weeks ....they have plenty of cover from the sun and water and wind, plenty of sun if they want it.
