this chicken of ours is usually the most lively one and since last night she has not looked well at all. Please help as to what may be going on with her.

All other 11 chickens we have are perfect fine.

Thanks

Do you provide crushed oyster shell and grit?

Some things to check:

Crop - is it full, hard, squishy, emptying in the morning?
Abdomen - is it swollen, hard, soft? Compare to other chickens if you're not sure what is normal.
Vent - is it pulsing? Can you feel a stuck egg?
Breathing - is she gaping, breathing heavily, wheezing, coughing?
Poop - any diarrhea, odd colors?

Is she sitting hunched backed,
Yes

Yes crushed oyster shell is provided.

I don’t notice vent pulsing. I can’t feel a stuck egg.

Abdomen was swollen but didn’t seem too hard to me.
