Is there any way I can treat this? All of my other chickens are fine. None of the rest have this. It’s been super cold the past 2 weeks. Like around -20.
Update! She’s still doing good today. She’s very alert. Walking around. Eating and drinking. Pooping. I got everything I need yesterday except for the antibiotics. I had to order those online. But they should be in Tuesday or Wednesday.
Does anyone know what animal could’ve done this? I set out...
Thank you! I had to go to work and just got home. She’s still doing fine. Walking around the bedroom eating and drinking water like normal. She’s pooping too.

She’s about a year and 3 months. Yesterday I noticed there were 2 less eggs than usual so I’m guessing she probably didn’t lay yesterday. The day before I think everyone laid. I can take pictures when I get home. She’s drinking water but not interested in eating. I gave her some scrambled eggs...
