I appreciate all of your comments and help - she really isn’t getting any better. we’ve been feeding her tums and I gave her a dewormer. We are giving her another bath to try to relax her.
Her waddles look a little redder compared to the rest of the chickens.
My chickens are let out their coop to go around the year and forage - typically all 5 get along well they can eat with all their heads in one spot but recently anytime time one of the chickens is digging and looking for food next to the others two other chickens basically attack her. Is that...
She’s drinking well and she’s eating the same as the other chickens - she’s just slower in her actions it’s weird.
I just bought the tums and I’ll crush up a 1/3 of it and do I mix with water or just give her the 1/3 piece whole
We’re in Westchester, New York.
She’s on the normal 16% layer feed.

This morning I went into the coop and found this brown yellow looking egg. Is there something wrong? Should I be concerned?
Would it be better to keep the chick feed then put the layer feed in a seperate feeder? Or should I mix it?
I’ll check the layer feed to see more about that protein.
Also never knew about oyster shells! Does anyone know the best place to buy them??
