I'm so sorry. Your chicken is very sick. Separate her from the rest of the flock. Do a search on this site for the three different things she probably has... and try to treat.
Has she had access to long grasses (is her crop buldgy and slushy?)

I found a great source! So I am closing this post! Thank you everyone. I can't wait to get my bantam frizzles and sizzles! Thanks to another self professed frizzle freak! :)

Thank you. I am learning so much about the Frizzle genetic anomaly. I cannot have roosters here so I am not interested in breeding. I just want a small family of six hens, bantams: silkies smooth (although a sizzle would be cute I bet) and polish with Frizzle. The eggs would be small, but...
