she has been laying in a dog crate for a week, she seems to be drinking, but not a lot of eating, every time I give her fresh food, she seems to be pecking at it, but then, not very much is gone when I check back.

please help me!! she hasn't walked in a week, she barely flaps her wings at all, now, (she wouldn't flap them at all a week...

ok, my baby is about 7 months old, she stopped laying a little after the first two weeks or so she started, but the others have still been laying. now she is laying in the middle of the yard, not moving, I picked her up, and it looks like her stool is stuck or something, I can post pics later...
