has anyone used epsom salts to treat hens who ate possibly moldy feed?

I see you can add 1lb of epsom salts to 5 gallons of water for one day to rinse out hen's insides in case they ate moldy scratch from last winter.

Has anyone ever tried this? I have a hen that is walking sideways but all else seems fine with her.

look for botuslism treatments- what color is her poop?

I don't know yet, I haven't seen her poop, she is still outside with the other hens. I am going to check on her now.
