I had this EXACT Same problem with my hen! Your hen has a tape worm! That's what the long white string was!
For days my hen was perching a lot, sleeping a lot, not eating much, not drinking at all, would do eveything on slow motion, droop her wings and have a messy behind. I kept asking on here, but got no helpful advice, but eventually figured it out. Keep her in a cage by herself, give her de-wormer and electrolytes in her water. She will start feeling normal in a snap an will poop the worm out in about a weeks span!
Hope I could help!
The second day my hen was sick I saw something stuck to her behind and the worm was trying to come out so I slowly pulled it, but it broke! Though it eventually died inside from de-wormer. She defecated it out.
Good luck to you and your hen!
