Please help. Chicken acting sick

Tilly...I need to go, I'll be gone for about 2 hours.
I'm only telling you this cause I don't want you to think I just up and abandoned you.
I'll check in when I return home.
I'm excited for you!
 
That was a great video! Just got done a 25 min warm bath. No egg. She is drying off now. I don't have a place to keep her separate right now because the baby chicks are using the other pen. She shares and XL coop with 4 other chickens though so I think she will be ok tonight. I really hope she would pass it before I go to bed so I can stop worrying! She doesn't seem to be contracting much now though. Maybe because it's night now?
 
Awe man. I'm pulled over and just HAD to sign in on my silly phone to check on her. I thought for sure there would be an egg. Maybe the bath and "check" helped her to feel better. Did u give her calcium? Gotta go again. See you soon
 
I did one more check while she was in the water and she just pooped a little more. It's crazy how close the eggs seems! I will say she is walking better now. Not so squatty. I gave her a little calcium but she wasnt super interested in eating. She is perched and sleeping now but as soon as she wakes in the morning I'm gonna give her her own bowl of food will calcium ground up and oyster shells. I'm hoping it caught it early. I know she was fine at 10 am as I gave them some oats. At 5pm I noticed her acting a little off and by 6pm she was laying down from time to time.
 
This morning she doesn't have much interest in eating. I have her in her own run for the day. I watched her for 20 min and she just wanted to stand around in one spot or lay. She did poop some watery poop while i watched her. I'm gonna do another epsom salt bath this morning
 
done with the bath. I checked her inside again. The egg im feeling seems off the the left some. Not directly straight in. Hopefully that's normal. She's resting now inside. In an hour I'm going to put her in the coop by herself so she can have a chance to sit in the nesting box. If no egg, I guess I will do another bath.
