Is seed coated with fungicide poisonous to chickens?

[Iwannachicken]

My DH let the chickens eat some fungicide coated fescue seed he was throwing out on "his side" of the backyard.
Now my dominant hen is acting sick. She's not eating, lethargic, and her comb is flopped over and discolored.

I've treated her for sour crop and it didn't really help. I can't feel anything in her crop at all.

Can anybody help me?

Yes, fungicide is bad to eat. I don't have advice, though. Bump.

It's probably mercury poisoning. I'm so sorry. Hens can tolerate mercury better than some livestock like sheep, but the kidneys are likely affected.

What should I do for her?

If I can catch her this afternoon I'm going to separate her b/c the others are starting to peck at her.

Should I go ahead and cull her or just wait and see what happens?
