One of my 2 yr old rhode island red is very sick. I noticed her comb was flopped over and pale about 2 weeks ago and she wasn't herself. I dewormed all 6 of them. Her comb seemed less pale but still wouldn't stand up. Today she was laying in the run on her side. She ate a little when I put it in front of but couldn't stand up..even when the other hens stepped on her. I brought her inside. She can't keep her eyes open for more than a few seconds. Her crop is full and seems hard. What should I do? Please help! I don't think she has much time.
 
I am so sorry, she doesn't sound like she will make it.

However, it may help if you get her on antibiotics and get into her electrolytes and vitamins with water to keep her hydrated. Keep her warm and comfortable.

I really hope she makes it.
