Very sick hen

[Wrenne]

My 3.5 year old hen and a survivor of Mareks is not well. She is normally my best egg layer with the largest egg. These are often so large she strains and then needs assistance with prolapse. Usually a warm bath and olive oil to assist with proper placement. However, she has layed two soft shelled eggs, one Shell-less egg and one very bloody yolk only egg. She is always outside all day, but now she is sitting at the waterfeeder inside. When she drinks, she raises her neck and then continues to drink. She is resting on the perch, but I fear she is sicker than she looks.
