I have a hen who was doing the penguin walk (it reminded me of me walking around with low back pain). She was also listless with a limp, pale comb. I gave her a 20 minute warm soak, access to scrambled eggs (with shell) and she's tucked away in a warm, dark room. What do I do next?
 
I'd put some electrolytes into her water to give her a bit more energy. If she becomes more active you can try another soak but if not then its best to avoid it since it could stress her out.
If she's eating, crush up a calcium tablet and add it to the eggs. best of luck!
