Is this feed a good one for chicks ages 0-8 weeks old?

Is there anything additional I can give this chick, assuming it may not be getting enough nutrients? I just added chick electrolyte/ vitamins to the water. Is that enough?
To cover a possible vitamin deficiency, I would just get a bottle of Poultry Cell or Nutri-Drench, as those are two that are a household name in many a chicken owner's box of goodies.

What I'd do is add it to their water twice a week. On a different day, give them probiotic (not electrolyte) water. Do that for a couple of weeks, then stop with the vitamins. If it was a deficiency for that one chick, it should show an improvement.

By the way, next time you need feed, I'd go with Kalmbach's Flock Maker, 20% protein. We use that in crumble form for all chicks and chickens (silkies) here. We have a dish of oyster shell for the hens as that's higher protein, but lower calcium.
