Quail not working properly seems to run on its tummy

[BirdsRDinosToo]

So my 1 or 2 day old chick is t walking properly and seemed to race around on its belly. Unsure they last time it are or drank but it would eat the water with electrolytes I was giving it. HELP Does it need separation and a special diet.

Yes, pictures would be very helpful

Are the toes curled? Are the legs splayed? Pictures, please.

Some, especially late hatchers, take a while to gain strength. Is it eating?

Pictures would be very helpful. If it's scooting around on it's belly, there's something amiss with it's legs or toes. Maybe hyperextended at the hocks? or displaced hip joint?
