I have a hen currently that is in the same condition. She's one of the oldest in the flock, maybe eight or nine, and has been slowing down over a long period. But I've been trying all of the basic measures just in case it's something she can recover from. First it was a yeasty crop, then she refused to eat. I treated those, and nothing has made a difference. I'm now giving her an antibiotic, but I have the feeling that she's in general organ failure and nothing will make a difference.
I suggest you try the tube feeding on the chance that it can help turn your hen around. At least then if it doesn't help, you will have the comfort of knowing you tried everything. Get the tube and syringe and I'll give you easy instructions how to go about tubing your first time.
