here is what I would do for the chicke or chicken
use some cod liver oil for A&D in the feed
use wheat germ oil for Vit E in the feed
also besure and do not put both oils in the feed of the same day
as they out do each other
also I would add oilve oil to the feed
the birds feathers have noted a dry course of lay
it is easily over come as the bird needs the oil in its system to grow healthy feathers
also you can spray the bird daily with warm water and give it more moisture that way
I know it will work as I did that with modern games in the Iowa heat in the summer time
some times they have to molt
but this chick will under go a molting to adul feathers and you will have helped it out
on the Vit's
you can buy the cod liver oil at the drug store
and just use 1/4 tsp a day on days feeding the cod liver oil
and buy 400 mg of Vit E at drug store and cut the tip and add to the feed daily
I would make a pen of chicken wire and make it to feed the chick that needs the oil daily and when she is done eating it then put her back with the rest of the chicks
just leave the chick pen wire in where she sees the others
and there will be not problems
as for the olive oil a 1/2 tsp can be added to all the chickens feed for a day
like what they will eat in 30 minutes
a couple of tsp per bird
any questions email me
