Fluffed up standing still and not eating

Currently she's pecking at an apple w the flock. I saw her bum, it's got dark brown runs on it. Much different from yesterday. Looks like a bath is in order!
I did give her the .5ml 2 times a day for 3 days of the corid, so I'm good there. .
Can you tell me how to giver her the Calcium? She does get egg shells and oyster shells, is that the same thing? Thanks for your reply!!!
Usually they just take the pill. I haven't had luck with that so I've had to mix it with scrambled egg. Oyster shell is calcium carbonate but what you need in the case of an egg bound hen is a high dose of calcium citrate to stimulate contractions so she can expel the egg.

It was just dark green and runny. I couldn't find any anywhere other than on her butt and couldn't get a good picture. However I gave her a bath today and soaked her bum because it was caked onto her vent and feathers. She is all nice and clean now. She's a totally different chicken today happy as can be and eating like she hasn't eaten in a week, which in all reality she hasn't LOL. Her tail is perky and she's walking around to like her normal self for the most part so I'm not 100% sure what her issue was other than giving her that corid. What a stressful week! Now let's just see if she lays an egg after this. I will continue to give her the stuff in that their water for the next 10 days.
