Welcome to BYC, Amber, and good luck with your chick.

Welcome, Amber! Sorry to hear about this. I’ve never raised them from chicks so I don’t have any advice.

Welcome! I hope your little lady gets better - that's a cute name. Do you have any nutridrench? It's quite helpful at perking up weak chicks, especially if they're thin, and can give them more energy to eat and drink. What do her droppings look like? Are they on a medicated feed (against coccidiosis?)

She passed away last night. She wasn’t eating, only drinking.and yes we were using baby electrolytes but she just didn’t get better. Thank you.

Hello Amber and Welcome to BYC. Thanks for joining this fun and poultry loving community. Sorry that the little one was lost.

Hiya, Amber, and welcome to BYC!

So sorry about the chick you lost. It knows you tried, but like @DobieLover said about failure to thrive, sometimes there is one here or there that just shouldn't have hatched.

I am so sorry. Are you okay? I never am when I lose one of my babies.

Nothing you could have done. When I read your first post I thought, "sounds like a dead chick."

Enjoy your other chickies with your kids. My 5 year old is obsessed with hatching.
