Hello Everybody
I don't know what's wrong with my chicken.....I appreciate any help.

symptoms:
1.she doesn't eat or drink.
2.she's just standing somewhere... barely moves.
3.she constantly trying to get something out of his vent.(open and moves his vent a lot)
4.his comb is getting dark red(like wine red)
5.last night didn't get on sleeping stick(just standing)

Thing that I did:
1.I gave her some antibiotics orally
2.I gave her some milk(with syringe)
3.I checked inside his vent with my index finger(but it was just flesh didn't feel any egg)(although some yellowish thing came out with my finger but it wasn't a lot just a few=I think it was poo not egg related)
4.I put her in warm water for 15 minutes
5.and I gave her some Olive oil (I though maybe something has been stuck)

Please if you know anything help me....this is my favorite hen.
Thank you
 
How old is she? How long has she been acting like this. Has she been laying eggs recently? Try to get her drinking some water, and if you have electrolytes put some in the water. Offer her a little chopped cooked egg, chopped liver, or tuna, along with her usual feed. It can be hard to tell what exactly is wrong. Some things that can cause those symptoms could be internal laying, egg binding, or an intestinal infection. Feel of her crop to see if it is empty or full, firm, soft, or puffy. Look her over around and under her vent for mites or lice. Has she lost weight in her breast area, or is she puffy in her lower belly?

thank you for your response
she is 2 years old...I think 1 day or 1 day and half she has been acting like this.... she hasn't pooed at all I think the milk that I gave her 12 hours ago is still in her crop...her crop feels soft....I don't think she has lost any weight.
 
Not passing droppings could possibly mean that she is blocked, possibly with a large egg or a lash egg which is from infection. You may want to re-check her in the morning for egg binding. Milk is not good for chickens, since they cannot digest dairy products. You can give water with a pinch of salt and sugar in a cup or so. Can you bring her inside to a warm spot to lie down for the night? Placing her on an old towel or puppy pad would allow you to see her droppings. Dog crates or baskets are good. Place water and food close to her, and offer them often.
