Thanks everyone, I appreciate all the help. I'm guessing you all know what to expect from this post. She didn't make it. I put her in the kennel before going to bed, but heard her flapping one more time before I tried to fall asleep. Went down stares and she started squawking. I took her out into the shop, and even though I haven never killed anything, I was going to cull her. I was ready, but she did it for me.
All of the symptoms were so sudden, and don't add up. It didn't seem to be paralysis, since she could still use her legs, she just couldn't control them. She lost all coordination in the end. Her pupils were dilated which is a symptoms of Mareks disease. I'm just not sure what to guess, and I really want to know what happened. I put her in a cooler on a small amount of ice last night, as not to get her to cold. Anyone have links to a state lab I could look into? I would do it myself, but like @Eggcessive said I assumed I wouldn't' be able to see Mareks on my own.
Thanks again for everyones help, the only regret I have is not culling her sooner. I wish I wouldn't have held back. Thanks again, I'll keep you updated on what I decide to do from here, and what I see from the necropsy wether either way I decide to do that.
