She is an 8 year old australorp, weighs about 2kg. Over the past few days she hasn't been able to move around, her tail is down, her face and comb pale, her poop white and green diarrhea. She has lost her voice

She barely eats and drinks, her breathing is normal.

I checked her for injuries and there are none. Please help me!
 
Any other symptoms? Mucus?
Diet? Crop feel?
8 is getting up there, has she laid recently?
Her crop is empty, I've checked her for mites, there are none

white and green diarrhea usually mean there is some infection. do you have any antibiotics (oxytetracycline, doxycycline, baytril)? baytril and baycox together help intestinal infections.
 
I’m dealing with the same problem with my hen right now. We think it’s coccidiosis. Yours might have the same problem. I’d isolate her from other hens. Also get some Corid for her, but in the meantime you can put some apple cider vinegar in her water. You can find the ratio online. I’ve read that you can boil water with garlic or use oregano. I would look up the proper ratio online just so you don’t give her too much. Good luck!!!

Does she still lay eggs?

She's lost her voice, look inside her beak, are there any signs of lesions/yellow-white pasty material like Canker?

Green poop can also indicate bile from not eating. If she should have laid an egg and hasn't, then it would be a good idea to get some extra Calcium into her for several days. 300-600mg Calcium Citrate+D3 if possible.
