Chicken sleeping while sitting and not eating

[ChickenzGurl]

My chicken Raven was fine yesterday but is acting weird today. She's been standing up but closing her eyes while all the other chickens are eating and exploring. When I try giving her food or treats, she just walks away. She also has been drinking a lot of water. She barely moves away when I come near her. If anyone knows what is happening to her please tell me! I am really worried for her!

Can you check a few things and tell us how old she is, as well as if she has been laying eggs recently? Can you feel of her crop and tell us if it feels empty, full, puffy, or hard? Has she lost weight in her breast? Is her lower belly between her legs swollen? Can you insert a finger inside her vent to check for a stuck egg? Also look her over for mites and dirt on her skin. If you have some electrolytes or Gatorade, offer some up to her beak.

She is about a year old. I don't know for sure if she has been laying eggs, but I have seen her in the egg box. I checked her crop and it is really soft and empty. Earlier I checked for mites and there wasn't any I could see

Is she drinking excessively? That could be a sign if it’s not hot there. Eggcessive suggested you check for wasting in the breast muscle and swelling in her belly. Can you do that and report back? Do you know how? For her breast muscle, compare her to your other birds and see if her keel bone (breast bone) is protruding sharply. Her belly/abdomen is the fluffy area between her legs snd below her vent. Cup your hand around her belly and compare to your other birds.
