Hi! I'm a bit new at this but I've read that extra protein (crumbled hard boiled eggs should work) and a bit of sugar water or nutridrench can really help a chicken that has been ill.
Do you know what the illness was?

Live insects. Meal worms are often easy to purchase. Live crickets also work well if chick mobile. If chick having mobility issue, then crush crickets so they can not get away. Generally, such insects promote a much stronger feeding response that feeds owing to a combination of movement, texture, and taste.

Thanks for the ides, though, the chicken passed away this morning. I think she was too old and too weak.

Thank you!! She was very loved.
Her name was LucyAnna. She was the second chicken I ever hatched.

I think it was Wry Neck from head trauma.
