Help! Please!!

It’s so good to hear of her turn around. Good job nursing her back to health!

Does she open her mouth when she is doing this weird head/neck movement? It could be her adjusting her crop.
Thank you! I belive it was God working through me. No, she doesn't open her mouth, but I agree I think she jusf adjusting her crop.

I just want to say thank you so much to @Wyorp Rock and @alinas2010.
I did not give her Aspirin today and she did great! She is back to her normal self expect making eggs, but I assume that will take a bit for her body to get adjusted. She was super happy today, she is back to being the second leader, along with Peaches in the flock! I am so glad she made it, she means the world to mean and my family, and I could not have done it without your help and prayers!

I'm glad to hear she's doing much better and is now back outside.
 
Maybe I spoke to soon 😭
She slept in the house one last time to make sure she was 100%. When we took her out this morning she did her routine.. Go around all the buckets, and roost on her little box and preen. She doesn't even eat. So later, my mom went and she said Snooze was away from the flock no eating or drinking. I was worried, so I gave her 20 minutes and went down to the flock. She greated me by the gate and talked to me, ate some snacks and then proceeded to walk with the flock and preen. Personally, I think that might just be her being a sleepy head in the morning.
 
If the underlying culprit is indeed heat, then it should be recognized that she's not tolerating the environment. While it's possible to
perk-up an overheated animal, placing the same animal back out in the same environment should be expected to result in over-heating again.

It's possible that most of the time an animal will tolerate higher heat, but for whatever reason could be having an off-week, such that the
higher heat is causing a problem now, but didn't last time, and won't next time.

If she's truly suffered a heat-injury, it should be expected to take her a couple-few days to adquately recover. Meaning keep her inside at
least a day. Besides, in the cooler environment, if she doesn't improve and stabilize good, then you know you've got some other problem.

How's her crop? For sick birds, I like to provide a sugar water option. Agree with the calcium tablet daily for a week.
Hi guys! I have a chicken named Peaches and she is sick, again...

It started this morning when my mom noticed her standing eyes closed. She brought her inside and told me. I thought she might be exhausted because of the heat because prior to today, it was really, really hot and humid... So we gave her electrolytes by a syringe because she didnt want to drink it by herself. Later in the day she seemed to perk up, eating, drinking, walking and pooping. I was so thankful she was okay and so I brought her out. She ran down the hill to the coop and went straight in the nest. Later my brother went to collect the eggs and handed me hers. I started looking at it and I touched just slightly harder and it cracked- it was paper thin... We immediately brought her inside and gave her 1 calicum tablet with d3. I also gave her yogurt and kefier. She ate some of that as well. Other things I fead her were live meal worms, dry food, grapes, dry meal worms and some egg (she didnt want the egg.)

I am super lost now... Her poops are normal poops I can get a pic if you guys need, nothing is coming out of her vent, she keeps one eye open most of the time and the rest she just sleeps... Is she deficient of calcium? I already dewormed the flock, her dose stopped yesterday.

Lastly, this isn't the first time this has happend to her. Maybe 2 times she had problems with calicum and egg bound. So I think her body can't absorb calcium. How can I fix this? Please guys I need your help! Thanks.

How is she doing tonight? Did she improve at all throughout the day?

I think I am going crazy... Or maybe I am overreacting??? She is not at all lethargic. She doesn't seem to be in pain at all. But for some reason, I dont think she is eating or drinking.. Her poops are not green which means the biom in liver is getting muted out by the feed. But her poops are super small. I never saw her eat or drink today, except a couple times when I fed her by hand and when I brought there chicken salad. Her comb isnt floppy or pale which I assume means she isnt dehydrated. But again, never saw her drink. Her crop is pretty small, but I read that it emptys every 4-6 hours. Im not sure at this point. :hit@alinas2010 could this be just the aftermath of her being sick?
