Is there anything that will boost the appetite of a sick bantam? Or make her less fussy?!
One of the vitamins does it, I think, but I can't remember which one.
Is there anything I could do to make her eat other than endlessly dig up worms?
 
Prednasone makes them increase their appetite, but you need a prescription from a doctor and I doubt he'll prescribe it for a chicken. I think you'd be better off identifying the underlying cause and treating that instead. Prednasone doesnt guarantee that they'll eat if they are sick. Your bantam may have external and/or internal parasites causing it to be sick. You should be ensuring it's fed layer feed if it's over 20 weeks old, not worms all the time.
 
Yes, I know. Thanks for the suggestion!
