Clear watery poop with cheesy crust on vent feathers

[Terry2fish]

One of my chickens, 15 month old Americauna, is sick. She had poopy dirty vent feathers for a couple days but then it was gone and clean again for the last two days. Today she has cheesy crusty goop on her vent feathers and is pooping clear liquid. She is lethargic and does not seem to be eating. Can anyone advise as to what this might be, is it contagious, how do I treat it, should she be isolated? I am worried and leaving town for four days, leaving the chickens for my husband to tend. I need to get some solid information as to what should be done before I leave for my trip on Wednesday.

Thank you in advance for any and all assistance!
