hello, i have a chicken that isn't moving or clucking when i pick it up. i found her tonight under the coop, her foot was bloody but i don't think it has anything to do with it, her eyes were open and her crop was somewhat full, maybe halfway? the problem might be that she is eight years old, but she hasn't had ANY health problems yet. i gave her apple cider vinegar and a scrambled egg, we are picking up Nutridrench tomorrow, if she lives through the night... any advice is useful.
 
Could she have been pecked or had a blood feather plucked by the other chickens because she was being bullied? Is there an injury? Can you get her sipping some water from a cup up to her beak? Add a tsp of sugar to 8 ounces or some electrolytes.
 
it looks like one of the scales was pulled off, i don't think she was bullied, she is pretty respected by the other chickens. she is not drinking right now but in the morning maybe i could get her to drink something... if she is still alive.
