I was just giving her some water with a dropper and she seemed to do really well! I just gave her like a mL at a time about..very little. But she was leaning her head back and swallowing it down. I tried to wash off her face some but it was hard to scrub hard enough to get dried blood off and not hurt her..so I didn't get it completely cleared.Have you tried just dunking the end of her beak in it? If she's stressed out then I would just let her sit or stand and then move the water, rather than moving her. Put some in a little cup and just hold it up to her.
Otherwise I have had good success with a dropper but you do have to be very careful that they don't asphyxiate, letting them swallow just a little at a time and stopping if it doesn't work. It's really key to get her drinking in my experience.
