1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.
Silkie x D'uccle mix. 1 out of 7 hatched last month. The 6 others are walking ok.

No.

I am inexperienced so can't tell. No bleeding.
6) What happened, if anything that you know of, that may have caused the situation.
Not really. Broody can be clumsy and step on them when younger.

Yes. Eating and drinking ok
8) How does the poop look? Normal? Bloody? Runny? etc.
Not sure. Hard to tell apart from other chicks' poop.

They all had corrid two weeks ago due to some red in poop. They all have been drinking water mixed with vitamins.
10 ) What is your intent as far as treatment? For example, do you want to treat completely yourself, or do you need help in stabilizing the bird til you can get to a vet?
Not sure. Vet open on weekdays only.

12) Describe the housing/bedding in use
Nesting material since the broody taught them to eat pine shavings -_-
