Help! We have a barred plymouth rock that's about a week old who was chirping loudly throughout the night but moving around fine. When I came home from work today she was on her back and apparently unable to right herself because she was getting trampled by the other chicks. When I hold her, her head lolls back and her eyes are shut but she is still chirping quietly. I wrapped her up and put her alone under a heat lamp, which helped her to stop writhing around, but I can't figure out what's wrong. She seems very ill. Thanks for any insight...
