Sorry to hear your chick doesn't seem to be thriving. Is the chick in a brooder? Is it eating and drinking? You might try posting on this link:

Newly hatched chicks do sleep a lot. Hatching is very hard work. Even when they pep up , they often fall a sleep standing up. Make sure the water dish has marbles or clean pebbles in it and is shallow, so if she/he falls in - won't drown.
