You don't have to type anything, just click on the blue type. It should bring up the page.

I would try hand feeding her ASAP. Make a mix of yogurt, ground feed, and pedialyte (without added iron). Make it liquid enough that you can put it on the side of her beak and it might have some seep in. Feed her small amounts as often as you can.

Do not force it into her beak as it might cause her to aspirate it. I lost a chick once to that.

I tried clicking on the blue area and it came up as error.
 
I just checked it - working on this end - should take you to an extension website about common poultry diseases. It's pretty thorough. There is a pdf I might be able to email you if attachments are allowed
 
They have a check list of symptoms. If there are any more you've noticed, tell me what they are and I'll check through the potential bacterial/viral options. As for pedialyte, I have 15 birds and basically go in with a cup and let them drink as much as they want. They have fresh water available. I hold it up to each of them - some of them don't take any, others take a lot. I figure they know what they need. If anyone else has a set amount they give let us know. They seem very healthy.
 
Omelet is finally walking on her own. But she still does not look good. Were just put out a little bit of yogurt, layena, and chick starter mixed with a little bit of pedialyte. I am praying to god to keep her alive. Please pray too. I will give a update later.
 
I am praying she gets better. I have a sick hen right now, too. It's very upsetting not knowing what exactly is wrong. Keep us updated.
 
Now omelet is sleeping I don't want to wake her but she not eating a lot of pedialyte. She only pecked at it 2 times is there anyway for her to like it better?
