Hello, at the risk of looking silly, can someone please advise if there might be something wrong with my chick? It is eating and drinking but has started chirping like this since yesterday?

The chirping sounds find, HOWEVER the standing position makes me think she is sick. She is puffed up too :(

Have you seen any odd poops?

I had a chick exactly like that last year, made that sound constantly, stood all puffed up like that, eyes closed, I separated her and force fed her boiled egg yolk mixed with water. after a week of doing that she got better.

No I haven't seen anything odd and just checked again and all poo looks normal. Some lighter brown liquid ones. I checked her vent which was very clear
 
Its not as active as the other two. And is doing this continuously.
Can you post some photos of her poop and the brooder?
What are you feeding?
You aren't providing extra heat are you?

I would see that she's drinking well. Check her crop first thing in the morning before she eats/drinks.

The sound isn't that concerning, but her hunched appearance to me is. Could be she's too hot, but I don't see panting.
