She seemed ok yesterday but I did notice she was starting to act withdrawn but kinda just a little and she did go in the nest box and lay but later when I checked there was nothing. I crushed up a tums and put it on a scrambled egg for her so she's eating it now
 
If she doesn't eat all the egg, give her more Tums. You need to get at least 500-600mg into her to do any good. Next time, don't crush or dilute but push the entire dose into her beak. Tums is large so break it in half and give her both halves one after the other.
