Week old chick help

[EmpyreQueen]

Hello! I have 6, one week old chicks. All are doing great except one. Shes half the size of the others. Is always "sleepy" and has droopy wings.

I've got her separated from the rest, and have been making sure she's drinking. Idk if she's eating tho! Food looks untouched.
What could be wrong and what can I do

I have a showgirl chick I used this with and she is doing much better. She was weak and small. Wouldn’t come out from under the brooder plate and hardly peeped. When she did it was really quiet. I gave this to her and some poultry cell. She’s doing better now in her own area with a heating pad and her own food.

Well I think I've done all I can. I've given her Nutri Drench, hydro hen, raw egg yolk,
I have her separated so she won't get picked on. I really hope she makes it. She's sleeping right now. I soaked some chick feed and left it next to her so hopefully she will start to eat here in a bit if the egg yolk and nutridrench help her gain her strength back

buy another one. if you buy enough chicks...they don't all make it. it sucks. i found one in the last batch...i was crushed. i tried everything.

a rule of thumb...for me...if i buy 25 chicks...i just hope to end up with 20 pullets...assuming a couple cockerels and not everyone makes it. however, it usually ends up as one cockerel and all but one makes it...so...better than planned...but buy more than you want to have
