The inevitable humidity question, day before lockdown, help please!

[aart]

@WVduckchick @aart I have a problem. The chick that I rescued the other day that was all hunched up under a bush, is now all hunched up again. She is alert but unwilling to run about with her hatchmates. She seems to poop fine and it looks normal but she keeps her neck withdrawn and her feathers are all sticking up like she's cold. When I put her back in the 'growing on' brooder the other day, I turned the warm blanket back on as the nights have been getting colder and she was behaving like she needed to be kept warm.
She does not have any injuries that I can see. She can stand and walk but is, as I said, unwilling to do so. She gobbled up some more scrambled egg with yogurt this morning but I am now at a loss as to what can be wrong.
Does cocci look like this before blood in the poop? Can terror last this long?
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Was she fine before the escape?
How old is she?
Maybe she got injured on her adventure?
I don't know anything about coccidiosis, never really dealt with it.

Are others picking on her?
I agree with Ron. If you have some Corid, I don’t think it would hurt to give some.

I already started the Corid, I figured I would preempt. Thank you for the replies. No the others are not picking on her, when she emerges to drink water they pretty much ignore her. She drinks and then quietly goes back under the warm blanket. She wont eat the regular feed Flock Raiser but she will eat the scrambled egg.... As far as I can tell, she has no external injuries. I suppose she could have sustained something internally although I dont know how, there are no heights for her to fall from. Would a pic. of her help? I can try to get one tomorrow morning! Oh, and she is just over a month old.

I’m not much help. But yes, a pic may trigger something. I’d like to see her anyway.

Oh, that's right, I said I would post pics. Sorry! I'll get some in the morning.

@WVduckchick @aart here are some pics.
Ming and his brother Cocoa and then Chai, my little sickie. See how she droops her wings!

Chai, my little sickie. See how she droops her wings!

This one? Looks puffed up with head pulled back too.

yes that one, any thoughts?

 

[aart]

Did you start her on corid?
If not, or after that treatment is done, I'd try some nutridrench.
Keep feeding her the eggs.
Is her crop emptying?
What do her poops look like?

 

[oregonkat]

Yes on Corid since yesterday afternoon.
Tried her on some eggs just now and she was not interested at all.
Crop is small.
As of yesterday her poop looked normal. But, since I got a hold of her this morning she has not pooped at all. I have a dropper with the corid solution in it that I have been giving her little drops of and she kind of drinks but it certainly is not much. I admit to being quite worried now!
She is standing now, like in the photo, and peeping gently.
