New Chick Doesn't Seem Well

[DallasChickyMomma]

After looking over the diseases section of the forum, I realized I am not sure what is wrong, so I can not do a search. Maybe y'all can help me out.

One of the 5 chicks, Scramble, got her name by what she does. She scrambles after me when she's out of her cage.

Today, she is not interested in doing anything, she is constantly sitting under the brooder lamp. She came out and found me, decided it would be a good thing to sit on my foot, and she stayed there until I picked her up. This is not normal for Scramble. (It seems... I have only had her since Monday.)

I checked her backside to see if she was pasted up, but I don't SEE a problem... I am not sure of another way to check other than to look. Any suggestions on what I should do? Or should I just ride it out and see what happens?

Thanks in advance!

Go and get some poly-visol WITHOUT IRON. They are infant vitamin drops. They should do the trick, until then try giving her some very diluted sugar water. Like 1 tsp to a quart waterer. Good luck!!!

Sounds good, I will run to the store now.
