My baby chin is 2 days old and walks around with his back sticking up. His butt is high up off the ground as well. He wasn't eating even when under mom. He would lay with her but have his face out. After awhile I found him by himself laying around. I started to hand feed him and some energy seems to have returned. He still won't nurse with mom but his sibling is and is doing fine. I'm worried bc his back sticks up and he looks like he is in pain. Is this likely due to an illness, or maybe an injury? I don't see any signs of injury but I'm not sure what else it could be. He is only 2 days old and didnt seem to struggle at all until he was a full day old. His sibling did nip at him quite a bit as well.
