Hurt chicken?

She could be dying from shock. Get her started on the electrolyte water, nothing else, immediately.

Measure out one cup of water and stir in one teaspoon sugar with a pinch of salt and baking soda. Give as her sole water source for the next 48 hours. That means take away her access to plain water for two days.

Gotcha, does this mean I should seperate her from the rest of the flock so I can give her the water? I have replaced the main water source in the coop with chicken elixir to make it accessible to her at all times, but i understand if this isnt enough.

While you don't want to give electrolytes every single day, electrolyte solution for the whole flock won't hurt them for two days. In fact, if you have hot weather coming it will balance their electrolytes to meet their hot weather needs. But if you'd rather fence her off in case the others are bullying her, then give her the solution as the only water source.

UPDATE!
She's still moving along. Ive noticed she's able to stand up now for a bit longer and she's even preening herself. I really do hope she'll make a recovery, I feel so bad this happened to the poor girl. Get well soon Pookie
