It could be coccidiosis, which can cause diarrhea, sometimes with blood, poor appetite, ruffled feathers, standing around puffed up or hunched, and sleepiness. Corid (amprollium) is used in the water for treatment. To know for sure, I would send a refrigerated body in to the state vet for a necropsy. If you have others, I would start the Corid right away and make sure they are drinking.
