My name is Barb. I am new to the group, so hello to everyone. I have a chicken that may be sick and would like some advice. Her name is Six. She hasn't been hanging out with the other chickens (there's only 3 more chickens). They have all been pooping kinda watery poo, but not all the time. But I saw little Six poop today, or attempt to. She looked like she was going to, but all that came out was a few watery drips. She had been laying, not everyday but she was laying. The last week or so, she sits on the nest for a long time but never leaves an egg. I was wondering if anyone might have any ideas about what to do. Thank you
 
Could you post photos? Is she eating and drinking?
I know she is drinking. I think she's eating. They always have food so I honestly don't know. She was in the shade with the other chickens earlier, but she had herself up in the grass in the corner. The grass is high so it made her hard to find. I have also seen another chicken plucking some feathers out of Six's back. I will try to get some pictures of her.

Today when I let them out, she didn't even go check out the food. Went straight to the doghouse. I don't know what to do. The vet we used to go to is no longer there. Looking at her, she looks fine. She's just not acting like herself
 
I just checked on her again. She's not holding her tail up like normal. I'm going to make a mash using some ground up Cheerios to see if I can get her to eat something. I know she will get some liquid from it.
