Wht should I do?

Gave him some wet and a bit of apple cider vinegar!
 
How is your chick doing?
What temperature are you keeping the brooder - on the cold side and warm side?

At a week old, pasty butt should be resolving.
Feed chick starter, you can offer it wet if you wish. Make sure your chick is staying hydrated.

Photos of your chick and poop are welcome if you have any you wish to share.
 
Unfortunately he died absolutely gutted! I did notice that he hadn’t really grown for two weeks old compared to the other who were younger and starting to feather he stilll looked like a day old chick!
