I'm with Renee on this one. It will probably live if it will be ok as an adult. And it will probably die soon if it isn't. So give it a few days and see if it can make it.

When I came home yesterday the chick was pretty much out of it. I immediatly put in in the incubator to warm it up. Didn't figure it was going to live. It is still alive today and active but seems to be very unstable on its feet and almost acts like it has vertigo. Any hope here or should I put it down?
