It would be best to cull. If you dont, the chick will die from starvation and/or being relentlessly picked/pecked on and eaten by the others.

You can try to froce feed and water it, but if it "doesn't want to live" than it won't make it. I have had some with big problems make it with some help and others that seem fine just die.

Agreed.

I don't mean to sound harsh, but a broken leg, not eating or drinking voluntarily? The merciful thing to do would be cull.

Cull, you can't save them all, and you certainly would not want it to starve to death.
