This would be a good post for the emergency thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures

If you could get a picture to go along with your post it would be helpful, too.

Good luck!

I think if you have a predator taking out your birds, you can shoot without a license, if you are in an area that allows shooting. 

Yes we are allowed to shoot it for destroying property or livestock but it becomes property of the St of WA... If we have a license then we can keep and must process the meat.

Lay them on their sides out of the holders.

Dose any one have tips on that to feed an injured hen with a bent jaw?
Right now I'm feeding her soup and stock.

It's not a emergency she's not bleeding and she has no wounds and it happened three days ago.
