Depressed, malnourished Easter Egger, won't eat, please help

She didn't make it to the vet...she died that night...I did everything I could to save her. She probably had worms of some kind. Because I fed her and gave her plenty of fluid but she continued going downhill, not gaining anything back. Or she could have had something else internally wrong with her. I loved her all I could...

So very sorry to hear that. Tragic news. I would take her to a vet anyway and get a necropsy done. You will learn what killed her and be better prepared if something happens like this next time. Many times vets will do this for very little or even no cost to you. Best wishes.
 
I found a worm in the chickens poop but don't know what kind. They will be seen by the vet. The farm vet should be able to cure worms right? I've never had sick chickens until now and I don't know about farm vets.

Worms of any variety are very treatable and any professional will know how, yes. If any other birds have eaten infested poop or gotten into whatever gave her the worms you could see this issue spreading. Keep a close eye on your birds for the next few days.
