My old hen has lime green poop on her feathers below her vent

See if she shows interest in eating if she's outside with the flock.
Sometimes being around other chickens encourages them.
The last few times she has been outside she did try eating but she ends stopping after a few pecks at the food although I think she finds things on the ground while she is out there. I don't stay outside the whole time she is outside. Today it is 60 degrees out and the sun is shining, I am going to take her outside now. I will get pictures of her when she is interacting with the flock.
 
I got some pictures of Broken toe when she was outside today.
There was wet feed next to her she wasn't eating it but she would peck any chickens trying to eat it.

Rose wanted to eat Broken toes food but Broken toe threatened to peck at her and scared her off.

She was sunbathing in this picture.

It was really nice out today it got to 70 degrees I believe. Broken toe seems much better today but she still needs to be inside. She was hanging out a little more with the rest of the flock she was foraging but she was still slow about it. Curious from what I saw did not pick on her today. Broken toe went into the coop at about 5:00pm and I brought her back in about 20 minutes ago.
I am going to make a update on Broken toes status a couple minutes from now.

Broken toes status update march 26 2022 9:00pm.
Broken toes crop has felt like there is water in it with some food/dirt for most of the day except before I let her outside.
She is still having the same kind of poop but they seem to have more brown to them again (Broken toe was outside today foraging sort of, as mentioned in the previous post.)
Broken toe drank water and ate a little bit of chicken feed today. She walked a lot today I believe. I almost let her stay in the coop tonight but she needs a few more days (if not more) of being inside at least at night. Depending on the weather.
I think that is all for now.
 
Her butt looks really red but it sounds like she's perking up! Did you get some coconut oil for her?
No, not yet but tomorrow my mom is going into town and she will get some coconut oil.
And she lost her tail feathers from being picked on or something I think.
Darth vader one of the other old hens has had her tail feathers being pulled every now and then and her tail and above her vent are looking pretty red right now, above her vent looks swollen a little. Broken toes vent looks normal and all around it to.
 
I usually get up at 7:00, 7:30 but I can start getting up at 6:00 while she is in my room. I can do that.
Thank you! @BigBlueHen53
Oh, 7 - 7:30 is fine, but I just didn't think she should have to wait until 9 for her breakfast if you could get up and check her earlier than that.
