Possibly a sick chick!

I just got the whole dose down him...thank goodness! I have a quart sized waterer so I will adjust the corvid amount accordingly! I will also keep a close watch on the rest of the flock, so far everyone else seems fine! Now, I will just watch him and hope that he comes around! Thank you again for your help! I will share what the outcome is, praying for a good one!
 
Should I go ahead and treat the rest of the chicks? My son picked up a 1g waterer for me so that I could do that if needed! So far they are looking good, but I know that could quickly change.
 
First I want to say thank you for all of the help that I received here today...this is something I've never experienced with any of my chicks...I believe I've been very fortunate. I've had chickens off and on for about 25 years! I don't think my little guy would still be alive right now without the advice so freely given! 💞
We completely cleaned out the coop and treated it with bleach, I thought I had some ammonia, but I didn't, so I did the best that I could! We decided to go ahead and treat the whole flock with the Corid...I did a little extra reading and that is the recommendation I came away with! I will treat them for the full 7 days! My Little Roo is still not doing the greatest, but I'm hoping we treated him in time! I will give him another dose tonight and see if he is still with me tomorrow! I will continue the undiluted doses for a few days! I hope that he makes it! I will update in the morning on how he is doing! Thank you again! 💞

He made it through the night! 💞 My husband went out first to check on him...I was afraid to...and he was sitting on top of his water bottle! He set him down and saw him pecking at his food! I gave him some mash and he ate a little of it! I left the screen off and he got up on the edge of the tote! So I put the screen back on and was hearing a weird noise, he was jumping up and hitting the screen cover...Now I'm hoping he didn't injure himself in doing so...silly chick! He's still not 100%, but I'm hoping he's over the hump and will make it! He's currently sleeping in my lap! I think my husband is working on a bigger hospital enclosure for him, I don't want to put him back out with the flock just yet! I will continue to give him Corid from a dropper for the next couple of days! Thank you so much for the excellent advice! 💞

Update and another thank you! Today is day 5 and he seems to be going at full throttle again! We had some ups and downs together, but I feel very confident in my feeling that he is fully recovered! Now, if we can only avoid any other hiccups and grow him to full maturity, I will be very happy! Thank you again for all of the excellent advice I received! 💞
