PLEASE I NEED HELP FINDING OUT WHATS WRONG WITH MY SILKIE HEN

[Nikkyrj]

My silkie hen has been acting strange lately, this morning she didn’t eat or drink, she’s been laying on the floor shaking & I assumed she’s trying to lay an egg but she hasn’t, I’m scared that she’s dehydrated, I made her some electrolytes

I'm not sure what's wrong, but can you bring her in your house somewhere warm because if she's not feeling well she might have some trouble regulating her temperature. Also you should be able to keep a better eye on her and any other chickens won't be able to pick on her.

Maybe she will eat something special, a few meal worms, a bit of warm oatmeal, scrambled eggs...

How long would you estimate she has been like this?

found out this morning that oatmeal is hard for them to digest!

She lives indoors, she’s been screeching at me if I were to go near her
