"Loner" Chick

[IzzyEllie3]

Hi!
First time chick owner here. So I'm pretty much ignorant about most everything just now. I went and picked myself up 6 Silkies today, all around 4 ish weeks old, and noticed that since getting them home, one is more lethargic and anti social than the rest. He just plopped down to sleep all by himself while the rest of them cuddled up in a corner. He's also the smallest. I don't know if that makes any difference.. Does this mean that he's sick?

Thank you!
Izzy

I would separate that one from the rest for now and try to give it electrolyte water an encourage drinking and eating. Just plopping down out if no where isn't good but if it's sleeping time or nap time that is normal. Mine just plopped down for naps and didn't roost till 6 weeks old FYI I don't have silkies but I tinker they don't roost as much as other breeds
