She's back to eating and drinking normally, but neuro symptoms remain. She's just not right in the head, sometimes walking in circles. The mouth gape is only occasional now. I've been letting her out with the others (supervised) and several keep trying to attack her. I'm going to give her...
No confirmation, just treated as if. Yes to green droppings when she stopped eating and I had to syringe food and give subq fluids. Normal poop now. No discharge from anything ever, no mites, no fluffed feathers, no respiratory issues, clean vent, no diarrhea. Crop seems to be functioning...

Five ducklings hatched last week. Parents are from show/breeding lines, not hatchery ducks. $35, local pickup in Indianapolis. Also have hatching eggs.
Thank you all. I suspected as much, sadly. She's been a special chicken and I'm grateful she's lived this long.
I have brought her in the house and she has plenty of tempting snacks and water, and a stress-free environment.
My 8 yo EE hen, Big Red, has stopped eating and drinking from what I can tell. Poop was stuck and covering her back end a few days ago so I cleaned her up. She was a bit lethargic but would eat mealworms and fruit.
