Ame home from work today and my leghorn pullet seems veru sick. White pastey rear, hef comb is completely drooped over, she won't leave the coop. Whe I picked her up to check her out, a watery discharge poured out of her mouth. Please help! She's just shy of 2 years old.
 
Hi I have two questions

,

1) Do you have any other hens?
2) If so, do they peck her, or try to be the boss of her?

If you see this happening tell me and I have some advice.

My thing to the side says "new egg" that means I just joined but I have had chickens for 3 yrs

I have others & have not noticed them messing with her. Something strange tho...last nightwhen putting them to bed, she was on the nest. I thought it was weird but also thought maybe her laying schedule was off. However, no egg from her today. I gave her a "rectal" exam today and felt nothing but the glove had what looked like a but of yolk on it. I gave her a warm bath to clean her up and have her isolated un a warm dark area. I don't think shes gonna make it. She is usually one of my perkier girls.
