Please Help! Chickens lethargic, eyes closed, won't eat or drink!

worried about my girl Comber went to let the them out and noticed she wasn't feeling well hadn't eaten since yesterday,droopy tail head hanging low couldnt keep her balance was fine lastnite she did however drink a little water this morning very worried and she expelled water with a little bit thicker mucus type stuff could be crop is overloaded looking for answers need help
 
UPDATE...I managed to find a produce store open. The owner was extremely helpful. I have some new medicine, and I actually think they are both looking ever so slightly better. Hoping the morning will bring some improvement. Thanks again for the advice :)
 
They called it CCC, whatever it is, it has done the trick for my youngest one, she is drinking and eating again, but I fear the worse for my older girl, she is still very poor and I don't know what else to do for her :(
 
well shes better but not 100% eating drinking and going potty...emptied out her crop 3 times giving her yogurt poor girl had sourcrop and wasn't pleasant for her,after she did first time she had projectile watery poo and felt better emptying out her bowels stopped making crooking sound and clucking normally

Perseverance has paid off! Both my girls are back on their feet! The older one was so far gone I didn't think she would make it, but I fed her 2 hourly by eye dropper and this morning, almost 5 days later, she was standing up in her box and even had a little bit to eat...happy, happy, happy dance :)
 
Shes much better...had sour crop all back to normal and was so happy to be outside,the olive oil did the trick gave her yogurt from a spoon she did real well
