Chicken is poorly, had one die last week

How old is she, and breed?

I have a hen that died last week, she was an ex layer and seemed slower, lethargic and withdrawn a week before she passed. I thought due to her age thought she was slowing down die to this but now I have another hen acting the same and has a floppy comb and yellowish runny poo which does smell a bit. She's still eating not as much though and is walking slower and keeping to herself. Any ideas? Many thanks

she looks kind of penguin-stanced there, that & bad smelling yellow poop could be egg yolk peritonitis. feel her abdomen & check if it feels hard & swollen.

She's an ex layer, not sure on breed and they're about 4-5 years old

I've just had a good feel of her and she definitely has a large abdomen, feel squishy but also hard? Still has yellowish dischargy poop but I noticed on the floor near her what looked like white tissue? So could this be worms? I did use flubenvet pellets in November to routinely worm

I've checked other poo from other birds and no signs of worms and she did another which is yellow/greenish but can't see any worms
