Sorry to hear this...... What type of wormer did the vet use? Make sure you keep her hydrated.

I just got home from the vet.
She was in a wire cage, with no nesting materials.
Unfortunately, the outlook is not a good one. She's very thin and incredibly weak and dehydrated. The vet seems to think it's either a reproductive issue or parasitic, but her stools all looked normal to me, and I kept an eye on them. They gave her vitamins, wormer, and some fluid, and gave me the option to hospitalize her or bring her home. Unfortunately, I just couldn't spend the 100+ dollars per day to have the medical staff look after her, so we are going to do the best we can at home. They gave me a plastic syringe to feed her, to see if we can help her regain her strength. Per the vet's advice, she's nestled up in a cat carrier with some shavings in the basement, where it's warm.
I'm pretty devastated. I love this sweet girl and it's pretty apparent that the outlook is grim. It's amazing how attached a girl can get to a hen. Prayers would be appreciated. <3
Unfortunately, my sweet girl took a pretty sharp turn for the worse last night. She's gotten just as, if not weaker, than she was, and now she's refusing food and water almost entirely. She has another vet visit tomorrow, but I don't know she'll make it that long. I'm pretty devastated - she seemed to be doing better for a while.
