You can't know until and unless she does nothing but decline. That's failure to thrive. So definitely give her some Nutri drench or Chick Saver, keep her in with her flock with all that they all need anyway to be healthy and keep an eye on her. You'll know soon enough if she's going downhill or going to make it but be runtish or going to catch up like you say, since indeed that happens.
I agree, I don't think we're there yet, but it is a good point. With chicks that don't make it I always trust that it was for the best, and that they most likely wouldn't have had a happy life.
You could try 1/2 and see if she responds. Let me look at dosage, because I think they have a chick version.
Yes that’s the one i have with the minerals. But if i have to get something with electrolytes, i willI just looked deeper, the Poultry Cell one doesn't actually have electrolytes in it, just minerals. Is this the one that you have?

Something with electrolytes would be more effective. This is the one you would want if you can get it.

They have so many products I was getting confused.
What’re some signs i can look for that she’s going downhill. I’ve only had one chick die on me and it was sudden
Just not moving; eyes closed; head tucked into chest. you'll know.... What you described in first post doesn't sound too bad so I'm just thinking you'd notice her moving around less and less and not eating, drinking, just less activity than you see now. I've always noticed smaller chicks wanting to get under bigger chicks, like they would a mommy hen so I'm not sure if that part is off... Hope she's okay.
Yes she’s doing that too, tries to huddle under the other chicks wings like she would do a mom hen.Just not moving; eyes closed; head tucked into chest. you'll know....
