Lone chick

[CandiceMol1988]

So long story short we now have a one and a half week old chick alone.

Story
Our first round of incubation was a big flop... We had 13 eggs, and needless to say a major power drop on day 16 seems to have spoiled our chances,
We had one successful hatch but he took 36 hours from first pip to hatch,
Next hatchling died, he seemed to be turned away from where the first pip was.
Third hatching had a little yolk unabsorbed as well as ambilical cord still attached, he survived 6 days and gave such a good fight!
But now our survivor is alone... He is doing fantastically and has no issues at all but what do we do with one little guy? He is indoors and very human social but do we keep him? Get a chick from elsewhere or find him a new home (we would be devastated)

Any advice

I’d try to get him one or two other chicks as friends of the same age
I’m in a similar situation but there aren’t many chicks around
Until you do try putting a mirror in there, mine quite enjoys that
