HELP! Sick hen, bloated abdomen

I know I'm responding to a super old post, but this has all been very helpful. My chicken has been acting similarly to Best Bird, and in fact, she was very sick before but seemed to totally come out of it and be as healthy as the others, and then, just as suddenly, was back in this situation. We've had her in the house for a couple of days and she'll eat and drink some, but nothing much, and I fear she doesn't have all that much time in this world left. The autopsy description, however, was fascinating and makes me feel that I've likely done all I can for her.

I do have one question ... if one has to put a chicken out of its misery, what are the best ways to do that that cause the least amount of trauma to the human AND the chicken?
