What's the amoxicillin dose for chickens?

Is it possible for cancer to come on that fast out of nowhere? Our hens are on an organic, no soy feed and they free range. Cancer has to be genetic if she has it? Not sure what is going on here.

Could be genetic. If it's cancer, she probably had it for a while.

How much longer does she have?

You never know. Not long if she has stopped eating and moving.

I know it may be too late, but try giving her some electrolytes though the mouth, antibiotics, and turmeric, and keep her inside if possible. This is her only chance other then by prayer. This is what I have studied to do about cancer.

There has to be something I can do. Is there anything I can do for her to make her more comfortable.

Yes. You can take her to a vet or you can try proper supportive care.
@Skipper Carnes is your sibling, yes?

This is the terribly sad part of owning chickens. Just hug her, kiss her, and let her know she is going to be with Jesus soon, among the millions of other friendly chickens who have already lived a life.
