This is Miracle when she(or he) was getting better, her feathers fuller and able to stand and starting to be able to eat on her own.

She had a rough hatch where you can see her trying to come out of her shell for 24 hours about 2-3 days after the other chicks hatched in the incubator. They were pecking at her a lot!! I believe that could've caused all these issues.

I tried to do everything I could to save Miracle by giving vitamin E w/ selenium, nutri drench,egg whites, using a splint etc...

just the past 2 days, her feathers has noticeably disappeared and she looks wet but she's not. She can no longer stand and has gotten noticeably weaker. My husband and I can't imagine the thought of one of us culling her . I don't know what to do and why she's getting worse! Could it be some sort of disease that's taking over her body?
