Worried about this little girl

from tractor supply

what is PND?

She did take a few steps at 1 time but now she's just laying down

We have tried giving her that straight to the mouth, liquid food, and water. She isn't wanting to even eat now legs are out to the sides and she is shalow in breathing. She is still moving around her neck a little. She tried to walk but barely could and balance was off. She would just stand there and rock til tired then laid down.
Sorry for the abbreviation. PND=Poultry Nutri-Drench

It sounds like she's failing. You mention her legs are at the sides, does she have splay/spraddle leg? Sometimes this can be corrected. Other times, chicks that have leg problems can often have something else going on and fail to thrive.
