Is a heat source needed?

I think you are looking at age there. Seems like there might be some cataarac in the second picture. Also her feathers are kind of ratty looking, my old girls got that way as well.

I'm afraid it is time to say goodbye. You've taken good care of her and made her as comfortable as possible but I doubt there is much more you can do for her. All stories come to an end.

I gave warm olive oil last night she smelled a bit sour.Today when I woke I didnt expect her to make it.She had a major BM all over the crate it was huge .Now this morning she is drinking alot of water on her own and eating her feed.

Does she look better? Standing and looking around rather than just hunkered down?

Maybe she was just impacted?

My favorite hen walked right past me a few years ago when I let the girls out, off by herself. Not like her at all, she was always interested in being wherever I might happen to scare up some food. I did chores then hunted for her. Finally found her hunkered under the pool deck (not easy finding a black chicken in a dark place). Thought sure she she'd gone there to die even though she looked fine the day before. I put her in the broody buster with antibiotics and Nutridench in the water. Gave her some yogurt and regular food. She improved daily and I still had her 2 years later when she suffered a prolapse that wasn't something she could come back from.

If you haven't, I would get some vitamins in her and in case she has some internal infection, some antibiotics. Won't hurt her if she's on her way out, might help give her more months/years.
