An update to this :
She is back to being a happy, noisy, moving chicken with new little feathers and is loving life. Thank you all for your support. The marmite worked in a pinch but of course I wouldn't recommend anyone use it long due to the salt content. She wound up very thirsty so I had to monitor water intake closely when she wasn't able to stand. The vitafit worked like a charm. It's encouraging her feather growth as well.
I am still trying to get her to take the mash. I let everything soak for 24 hours so it's .. pretty much less hard ( I can break easily with my finger nail ) but definitely not like a boiled consistency where its able to be "mashed" or looks like some cooked oatmeal. She just looks at it and/or spits out whatever she picks up. Picky girl.
