Something is wrong with my chicken and I don't know what it is. She goes into these bouts of acting weird sometimes and she'll bounce back within 2 days, but this time it's lasting longer and she's also acting different. She doesn't like eating or drinking that much but she can, and she prefers not to move around but she can do that also. She's also not pooping normally, it's a watery/clear substance. I know she isn't egg bound because egg bound hens pass within 1-2 days. We put her in an epsom salt rinse and she appeared to be relaxed and attempting to push something out; but nothing came out. We also have been giving her some sunflower seeds, cracked corn, electrolytes, and antibiotics in case she has some form of internal fungus (which is 100% possible), but again, she doesn't prefer to eat at this point but does a little.
We placed calcium with her just in case it has to do something with what's wrong with her.
She's making noises and appears more brighter than yesterday, with her comb turning more reddish, but it still has the tiniest bit of a purple tint. But it's going away, hopefully.
She's puffed up but responds to stimuli.
