My 8week old chicken is very sick.

Looks like she's eaten something that doesn't agree with her stomach... any closer pics? What could the red be in the poo?

I didn’t feed her anything other than her normal organic starter feed, Some chick grit, And meal worms.

Now she feels slightly better maybe..? She tries to jump out of the bin and she falls back. She lies belly up and no energy to flip back on. I flipped her back on and she is sleeping now. 😕

I'm sorry... don't really know how to help! If she doesn't get any better try giving her sugar water with a syringe.

maybe some type of cover for the bin so she isnt tempted to waste her energy on escaping?
 
Keep her warm, make sure she doesn’t get cold. If she isn’t eating we’ll get a dropper and on her left nostril slowly put water mixed with her food.
 
I use dog crates for sick everything, unless they're small enough to fit through the bars. Put a trash bag down under them and swap it out for easy cleaning.
 
Thanks all for the great advice.
I will update at the end of the day or if there is any progress.
 
(Update)
She is finally feeling better. It took her about 10 days to feel better. About 4 days ago I thought she was going to die. She looked like only 2% battery remaining. However today she started walking and eating standing up. I’m so happy to see her up on her feet!
Thanks everyone !
