Last night all my girls were fine when I put them to bed.

This morning when I went to let the girls out I noticed one Rhode Island Red laying in the coop. She didn't respond by moving but her eyes were open. I moved her to a separate crate and have since gotten Vet Rx and some antibiotics, but haven't administered any antibiotics yet.

She had diarrhea a few days ago, but by the next day had cleared up and she wasn't acting oddly, I made sure she was eating and drinking and thought she was fine. None of the other hens are exhibiting any symptoms.

I have cleaned her butt and tried to get her to drink but she wont take anything and hasn't gotten up at all, she moved into a different position but thats all. After I gave her the VetRx she still keeps her eyes closed but is now drooling some of the mucus.

Any Ideas, suggestions would be so appreciated!!!

Thanks!
