Hen with pale comb and lethargic

She made it through the night but still looks terrible

This morning

She made it through the night but still looks terrible

This morning

She doesn't look like she's feeling well.

Have you checked her crop - what does it feel like?
Any bloat/swelling or fluid in the abdomen?
Have you looked at her poop?
Have you felt inside her with a gloved, lubricated finger to feel for an egg?
Any signs of lice/mites?

I would continue to keep her hydrated. Seeking vet care is best.

Still no poop pics, which can sometimes be just as important as chicken pics.

How is your hen doing? I thought her posture looked indicative of a reproductive issue... possibly egg bound. Did you examine her vent (gently inside) for an egg? Did you che k her crop as suggested previously? I hope she is feeling better but believe she will need your help to do so.

I posted a pic of the poop sticking to her feathers

She is still alive when I was doing research I believe she may have egg yolk perotinitis.....I have not stuck a finger in to feel for egg....her crop was full last time I felt also she seems really boney but she has been eating so that confuses me

Is her crop empty in the morning before she eats/drinks?
Can you feel of her abdomen - any bloat/swelling or feeling of fluid. Cup your hand under the vent between the legs - is it a full feeling - soft and pliable or hard/fluid filled.
Compare her to other laying hens if you need too.

When did she last lay an egg?
A photo of her poop would be good - it's hard to tell if it's just stuck to feathers

I did feel under between the legs and it's soft and squishy but I will compare to another hen later today ummm not sure crop morning before I will have to feel tomorrow morning not sure on last egg laid but since I have separated her I have not seen one....her poop kind of smells but it's like a sweet smell I will try to get a picture of her actual poop later after work.
