One year old won't eat or drink

[Clucking_Caramel]

Pearl barely eats if at all for the past few days. She even stopped eating treats. I checked her abdomen for any hard lumps (eggs) and felt nothing. Her crop isn't swollen or gurgling. I gave her antibiotics yesterday and today her poop is akin to tar.

I did put a chicken near her at one point, and she fought them like a rooster!

Have you fed her anything other than layer feed, ie; fruits, products with certain grains etc?
Otherwise there could possibly be internal bleeding.

Recently I tried to feed her scrambled eggs. Several days to a week ago I gave the whole flock blueberries.

If she doesn't start eating or drinking soon, you might want to consider tube feeding.

Can you get some clearer photo of the poop - close up?
A photo of Pearl - the whole body so we can see her face too would be nice

You mention that her crop is not swollen or gurgling, but is it empty in the morning before she eats/drinks?
Is Pearl drinking water on her own?

Have you looked at her vent to make sure there is no blockage or prolapse, check her for lice/mites?

When was the last time she laid an egg?

She last laid an egg days ago. She drinks a little bit on her own. When I bathed her yesterday (She did smell bad) I did not see any mites and nothing of note with her vent (But I did not push the floof out of the way). I don't think her crop is completely empty in the morning.

I'm at school and will ask my mother to email me with photos of her.

When you get home, look at her vent just to make sure nothing is going on there.
Re-Check the crop first thing in the morning, it should be empty. If it's not, then you have a crop problem. This is often a symptom of an underlying condition, so if you can get a fecal float to check for worms and coccidiosis that would be good too.

I received an email from my mom saying that she is now having green, smelly and watery poop. She is pooping a lot now and seems to be in better shape. Is it possible she was just constipated?

It's possible that she's just constipated, but usually there is more to it.

Pooping and feeling a bit better is good. She needs to be drinking first, then have a little to eat. If you think she was constipated, you can give her 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to help too. My chickens love coconut oil, just put it in the freezer to harden it, then cut it into little chunks, she will likely gobble that up.

When you get home and have time, post some photos for us.
