Show a picture of birds. Feel breast to see how much muscle mass present (estimate of condition / general health).

The best thing to do is buy a red-bulb heat lamp and hang it above the chicken. Also get a bottle of VetRX, put some in the water to prevent colds. Good luck, hope that I helped!

If birds adult in good health and nutritional status, then they are incredibly tolerant of cold. Large combs or poor feather can compromise this. Extremely low temperatures can reduce egg production and feed intake will increase.

I agree, is it still eating?

Can you make her stand? Pick her up an inch or two and drop her.

What does her poop look like? Have you wormed your chicken recently? You need to check them for lice and mites.
