Urgent help needed.

It looks viral to me also.
Massage that crop and get it to empty. Coconut oil is your friend and if she has an impacted crop, you need to get it to dump. That could very well be the reason for being smaller or malnourished. Feed her nutidrench/ hydro-hen or look up a recipe for an electrolyte water for her. Get her to also drink the electrolyes, Vit B and Vit E.
Feed her scrambled egg, yogurt with some feed in it to
Check for pasty bitt too. That could be liquid oozing around stuck poop or a stuck egg. At first when I looked at the pictures up close, I thought it also hand mites/Lice. Make sure you check for the parasites.
I'd feed her scrambled eggs and get some plain yogurt and put feed in it to soften.
She is lucky to have found you.
Too young for egg. Its a very young bird
 
hi,
I'm British, but living in Asia.
It drank the dextrose water and eats.but difficult seeing the food.
Theres no real paultry vets here. So basically it's me. And you guy's.

Its puffed up. Eyes closed.
I use a syringe and drop water on its beak and it drinks like dehydrated. And then eats a little.

Ill open its beak and check. Its crop looks big.
I took pictures.
No bad smell
Its crop seems a little hard.
So I've added coconut oil to the water and water and coconut oil to it's feed
Thanks everyone for all your help.

Just went to give water and food and the little fella is rip.
Gone in the incinerator, to stop disease.
Really grateful for all your support.
At least losing chickens gets easier.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Thank you for the photos. I agree with @Granny Hatchet it looks like Wet Form Fowl Pox.
Fowl Pox is a virus, so antibiotics would not have helped unless there was a secondary bacterial infection.
The lesions from Wet Fowl Pox can be found in the throat, respiratory tract and inside of the beak. They can grow and make it difficult for the bird to eat/drink and breath. Sadly, this form is hard to overcome in young birds and many don't make it.

This form of Fowl Pox is highly contagious, so I suggest that you clean and sanitize any water/food containers that you used before you use them for other birds.

If you other birds have ever had Fowl Pox, they may be resistant.
Since you are in Asia, it would be a good idea, if possible, to vaccinate any chicks that you get in the future. This may help either prevent or lessen the severity of infection.
