This morning my hen had wetness at her ears and was shaking her head making a clicking noise then would look like she was going to crow. What is wrong with her?

To clarify, there is a discharge from the ears? Have you flicked back the ear flap to look inside the ear holes to see what's in there? Swelling, the source of the wetness?

Have you inspected her throat for mucous and plaque-like lesions?

Have you checked her crop for over-fullness, hard lumps, or water balloon-like swelling?

Your hen may have a respiratory illness. The usual treatment is Tylan 50 if you can find it. Or order it here. https://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=30E07BC1-7B6A-11D5-A192-00B0D0204AE5 Hope you aren't in California, a prescription will be necessary if you are.
