Someone help! They have wood shavings, water, and crumble food. It is a baby bantam about 1-3 weeks old. Breed and gender is unknown. What could be wrong?

Mostly hard but a little squishy
No just normal smelling chick
Yes
Thanks, we don't have coconut oil, is there a possible substitute?It could have eaten a wood chip. I would give a small bit of coconut oil and massage the crop a bit (don't push up, you'll aspirate her). But I'm sure others can also chime in with better ideas.
Pics?
Behavior? Normal? Active? Sluggish?
Vegetable oil but extra care must be taken to avoid aspiration. Do not give until after we have seen this chick please.
