Chicken and ILL

[Countryman101]

Went out to the coop this morning and found my one hen just laying there. She is skinny and has a big bump above her chest bone. Soft and squishy. Out of the years I have had chickens I have had never had this problem before. I did place her by herself. Anyone may know what this is and what caused it. Thank you in advance.

The squishy area on her chest - is that her crop?

Im going on 3 days and this morning she did release some runny stool but that was only one time. I give her oil close to every 30 minutes and rub the crop in and circler motion but have yet had anything come up.. have heard lot of gas. But I wasn't sure how long I should have her go with out food it's going on 3 days without food.. any information is helpful thank you in advance.
