Culling a 4 1/2 week old chick?

Thank you all for your kindness and support. I culled the chick the day after posting this. I knew in my heart what needed to be done and it was extremely difficult for me, but it was easier than letting her starve to death. I feel like any responsible animal owner has to come to a point where they understand that ending the animals suffering is the kindest thing you could do for them, and that's where I was at. I just needed the reassurance that it was the right choice. I thank you all so much!
I’m in a similar situation but the chicks are a little over 2 weeks old. Ended up with 3 with scissor beak in my hatch. Obviously a genetic flaw somewhere in my flock :( how did you cull? This is my first time having to cull a chick.
