Sick chick, not growing?

[LmCattes]

I have 3 silkie chicks that are almost 2 weeks old. One of the 3 doesn’t seem to have grown much at all, she falls over quite a bit and cannot get herself up. If she stays upright she seems to get around okay. No one seems to be really picking on her either. I have given them some egg yolk and she seemed to perk up a bit and is now eating and drinking. Any ideas on anything else I can try?

I have had chicks with the same issue. Here is a home made electrolyte mixture to help it perk up.

Also try some vitamins. I use Poly-Vi-Sol for my chickens. But if you have any vitamins focused toward chicks on hand then I would suggest that.

Thank you! I’ll stop by the farm store and see what I can find

You can order Poly-Vi-Sol from Amazon and you can make the electrolytes at home with stuff you probanly already have.
