New from the Columbia Gorge

Hi, we're pretty new chicken folks living in the Columbia Gorge in Washington state. I'm having an issue with a chick that has me pretty upset right now, so I'll have to come back and write more intro later. Heading over to the "problem" section...

 

Thank you! I erased my original message because I saw that I had posted in the wrong spot-whoops!
I should've just left it and edited...not thinking clearly...thanks for the advice!
Here's the OP:

I just joined up here after trying to find a solution to my chick problem, but couldn't find one.
We are pretty new chicken folks, starting with five chicks last spring and they are all healthy, happy, egg-laying hens now.
We got five more a couple of weeks ago (they are 3 weeks old) and all seemed to be going well until tonight when I went to check the gals in the brooder. All looked fine except one. She's in the house now (next to me with a heat lamp). She has her head tucked up under her and when picked up, shakes her head side to side and just wants to tuck up in the fetal position. She's having difficulty standing, with her feet kind of splayed. She was tucking her head, shaking, and backing up as far as she could go. I'm guessing we'll lose her, but I thought I'd ask for advice here.
-Sally

 

Thanks, Is that something you get at a feed store?
