This is my second year raising chicks. picked up one Easter egger chick from runnings yesterday (I got my other chicks a few days ago) and I’m a bit concerned about her. I believe she is one day old, maybe two. She seems significantly less energetic than the my babies were at two days old. She kinda just stands still while slightly hunched over and she wobbles a little bit. Keeping her eyes closed a lot too. She has been drinking water but not eating a whole lot. I tried to give her an egg yolk and some Greek yogurt. That first photo is of her droppings. Should I be concerned?

How is your chick doing now, it's been a couple of weeks since your initial post.
