She looks like she may have gotten Botulism.
Was there anything spoiled she could've gotten into? I had 2 meat birds get botulism from spoiled feed in the feeder caused by extreme heat, & humidity. It's been taken care of.
 
I'm so sorry. I'm new to chicks myself, but without more info it would be hard for the pros to diagnose.

You have to upload the video to youtube, copy the link and paste it in here. BYC wont let you directly upload a video on the website.

Aside from a vet, this is the best place to come for help. The wonderful people have helped me out and showed me support more times than I can count. You're in the right place, sending love and healing prayers to you and your babe!!
 
When was the last time you saw her stand? Do you see anything visibly wrong with her legs? Do her joints still bend? Do you have any poultry probiotics and electrolytes on hand?
She took herself to bed last night i saw her walking then and she got herself out in to the run this morning i noticed she wasn't herself around 9am i cant see anything wrong with her
