Thanks to everyone for your time and attention in trying to help our precious pets.
1) Easter egger pullet, 12 weeks, thin and bony, vaccination status unknown.
2) Mildly lethargic, hanging back and lying around a little more than the others.
3) I just noticed yesterday before bed. I gave her scrambled eggs and mealworms and she ate voraciously but this morning was the last out of the coop and still seems low energy.
4) No.
5) No. I checked her over thoroughly last night. She is thin but otherwise healthy and I didn't see any parasites.
6) Nothing.
7) They all have free access to mixed flock feed and fresh water. I gave her scrambled eggs and mealworms for dinner to fatten her up.
8) I'm pretty sure it's normal, maybe a little runny. I saw one suspicious poop in the poop tray and I'll put a picture up of that one.
9) Just the extra food but Tractor Supply Company is about to open and I'll go get whatever they need.
10 ) It is a Sunday so I'd rather try to treat her own my own but I'm open to taking her to a vet if we must. Do emergency vets treat chickens? I haven't had them long and hadn't figured out the local vet situation yet. Hampton Roads area of Virginia.
11) Picture of her attached. She does seem like she's drooping her tail a little when she does stand but not all the time, when she walks she looks OK.
12) Chicken tractor moved to fresh grass often. I can isolate her in a dog crate in the house if it would help her recover. It's about to be super hot outside.
Thank you!
