Bright green poop!

[casportpony]

Where you have turkeys as well, its always possible chickens could get blackhead. Just a thought, here is a quick link about it. Maybe research that a bit more. http://www.millerhatcheries.com/information/diseases/blackhead_disease.htm

Blackhead is a always possibility, but the OP didn't mention any problems with turkeys, and in my experience it's the turkeys and peafowl that usually get it if any are going to get it. Additionally, of all of the blackhead poop I've seen, and I have seen many, it's never been green like that. Not saying that it isn't blackhead, just that if it were I would expect to also see some problems with the turkeys.

I just read the article on mareks. Green poop is one of the symptoms of mareks, but also of a lot of other problems. Pwand's observation about her starving fits your accounting about her scarfing everything in sight. I also would suggest worming her and giving vitamins & electrolytes in her water.

If you can, please do weigh her and compare her to other hens her age and breed, if you have any. Feel her keel bone (belly) and see if she seems thin to you. The keel should not feel like it is sharply protruding, but should have a good amount of muscle mass to it.
Weighing her is the BEST option, but if you can't feel the keel. Compare to your other hens.

Here is a visual... these images are as if the bird was pointed belly-up. http://www.commonswift.org/Veterinary-Help-for-Common-Swifts_files/image047.jpg

It really does sound as if she is not getting enough nutrition for some reason. Worms, disease, something else? It's hard to know without more info.

I just picked up wormer, the only one tractor supply had. And a vitamins and electrolytes powder, I'll try those And see how it works. I'll isolate the hens from the turkey's while I worm them.

TSC carries Wazine for chickens, which only gets roundworms, so if you haven't used it, return it and get some Safeguard liquid for goats or Safeguard paste for horses, either can be used on poultry, trust me.

Your TSC might also carry Valbazen (albendazole) or Panacur (same as Safeguard, 10% fenbendazole), so you could also use those. Here is what they look like:














The amount of Safeguard my vet told me to use is .5ml per 2.2 pounds (50mg/kg) by mouth and repeat in 10 days. The most effective Valbazen dose is .2 ml per 2.2 pounds (~20mg/kg) by mouth and repeat in 10 days.

Ok thank you that's the one I got I didn't know which other to try, I'll return it tomorrow.
Unfortunately I checked her crop tonight and it's empty :/, but I see her eating so aim going to remove her from the rest so I can monitor her eating better.
I did put the vitamins into there water tonight not the wormer ill do that when I get the right one.

She went downhill quick yesterday morning she was eating and drinking, my husband put them to bed last night. She's in an extra large dog crate in the barn. He said she was ok, I went in this morning and she fluffed up and barley moving. I don't know if she will be with us when I get out of work. She refused food even her fav. Treats...

Are you able to bring her in the house to keep her warm and were you able to deworm her?
