But he is just not as active as the rest. I'm not sure what to do next.

Is he actively trying to nurse? If he is nursing but is not as active I would try moving the other 6 to a warming pad and letting him nurse alone. Do you have any nutri drops or nutrical. I would give him a few drops of nutri drops or a little nutrical. If he is not nursing you could get some puppy formula and feed him with a dropper. Best of luck to you. That is a large litter. You will have your hands full for the next 10 weeks or so. How big is the mother and father?
