I have a bantam chick who as been very lethargic for almost 3 hours. She/he is exactly one week old. Temperature is right, clean food and water. Her two brooder mates are completely fine. Her poop is slightly green. I’ve tried sugar water and she won’t drink on her own. I have to dip her beak in and she kinda drinks. Won’t eat, will barely get up. I tried egg yolk and she wouldn’t eat it. No pasty butt either. I’m at a loss and this is my first time owning chicks. I feel awful and I really need help

Please don't beat yourself up! You're doing everything right. Some chicks just don't do well no matter what you do. There may be something genetically wrong with it and there's nothing you can do. The fact that your other chicks are thriving shows that you are not doing anything wrong. :hugs
