I have a 6mo old Barred Rock hen that's not really eating or being active. She was standing around just napping where she stood and not doing much of anything. I offered her some oatmeal, which usually her and all our chickens love, but she didn't want any. After watching her some and not seeing her really eat at all I thought it would be best to separate her. While she was separated I noticed her stool is like water.. She has had problems with her stool in the past, but after getting her some probiotics the issue seemed to clear up.
Does anyone know what this could be? All my other hens are fine and active. This poor girl is sort of the low chicken on the pecking order, but my chickens are free range so she has always has a chance to get food and water when the other girls leave. For whatever reason she also doesn't have much of a comb yet and is kind of on the small side.
I'm really worried about her, and I would appreciate any kind of adice
