Advice please

I would hold a small cup up to her beak often with water, electrolytes, and mushy food. She looks like she may still be in shock, or very weak. Has she been able to stand or walk? A hen of mine that had a similar run-in with a neighbor’s dog looked very rough the first day, but then recovered well on her own.
 
She is doing better.
She love spaghetti in a can lol
She drinking water and she loving raw egg yolk.
She not wanting to walk around much.
All she dose is sleep and gets cuddles on our lap.
Not sure i f that’s good or bad.
She has had aloe Vera gel on her back as well as antiseptic spray.

@Plymouths lift her wings and look under there for any wounds as well. If you can offer her water to sip and make some watery chicken feed mush for her several times a day, that would be helpful. When a predator goes after a hen, they can sometimes cause internal injuries. If she just has missing feathers, those will eventually grow back in, but sometimes it can take until the next molt. Let us know how she gets along. Welcome to BYC.
No puncher wounds under her wings.
Looks like she just been plucked badly

They sell electrolytes for chicks but some warm gatorade might do. You could add a little pinch of salt and sugar to some water.
Have you tried some canned fish or cat food? Maybe she will eat that. You can mix in some chicken food with it.
