She has not been moving at all just has been standing still not eating or drinking water, she also looks for warmth and is puffed up she’s only like four or three weeks old
 
How are the other chicks acting? What’s the brooder temperature? When’s the last time she pooped?
The rest are acting normal I don’t know the temperature and I don’t think she has pooped at all
 
You should really get a thermometer in there ASAP. 95 degrees the first week then drop by 5 degrees each week after. At 3 weeks they should be at 85.

Do you have any gro-gel you can give her?

Take her out and play with her. See if she poops.

At 3 weeks have you given them any food other than chick starter? If you have they also have to have grit to eat. If they don’t have grit they will get sick.
