Hello. One of my hens got these scab like things on her waddle area quite some time ago but I saw it as nothing until today since I just thought an animal might attacked her. past few days she has stopped laying and had become very inactive and not interested in food. I wouldn't worry to much since she was still grooming herself and drinking water along with scratching around the yard, though she would lay down and not do anything more than usual. Tonight when I went to check on her she seemed too calm when I approached her. She usually gets up to leave when she sees me.
Tried giving her some food she loves and she wouldn't even look at it.
She just stands there with her eyes closed.
One of my past chickens went through the eyes closed and not moving thing after a scare with my dog. Gave her sugar water for two days and she went back to her normal self. But this one is looking way too pale.
Did some research and saw that fowl pox could be a reason but it's been a lot longer than what they say it's the time period for it to catch and kill her if untreated in some way
Any comments would be helpful

I'll post a pic of her in her normal state vs how she currently is.
If it comes to worse she will be cremated. She is one of my babies
