She is I'd say she's flat
 
when you feel her keel?

A keel or carina (plural carinae) in bird anatomy is an extension of the sternum (breastbone) which runs axially along the midline of the sternum and extends outward, perpendicular to the plane of the ribs.

What type of respiratory illness did the other chickens have?
Is she eating? What type of food/treats do you give?
Do you provide grit if you feed anything else besides chick starter?
Did you use Corid for the cocci ?
What treatment did you use for the respiratory?
Is her crop full, hard, soft, empty, squishy?
Is she showing any signs of respiratory - coughing sneezing, etc.?

I agree with @DwayneNLiz
the hunched up appearance looks like cocci. Not all cocci will present with bloody poop. Corid is mild so it won't hurt to treat her.
I'll start corid today her crop is empty except when she drinks and I coaxed her into eating a little bit of lemon cucumber they eat a organic chick start and I use sand for the brooder so they have grit and I clean the brooder daily if it gets wet I dump the sand and get a fresh batch

Yeah like a 2 honestly I'm amazed she's got the little energy she has and for respiratory we used duramycin 10

i would take her off the sand
 
She is little enough to fit in a box or tote for awahile, then it is easy to keep an eye on,

they can also ingest sand and get sick from ingesting too much of that because it looks like crumbles
