I’m not sure what to do. I’ve tried to warm up her feet, but that won’t work. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do her feet are frostbitten
 
I am sorry that she lost both of her feet. Did you read the articles about the other chicken who lost her feet? Are you planning on treating her, and trying to help her?

Welcome To BYC
Can you please post photos?

Depending on the severity of the Frostbite, your hen may lose just a few toes to a whole foot, so photos can be helpful.

This article is one of the BEST resources we have her on BYC when dealing with frostbitten feet. I recommend that you read it.
For a more detailed and long timeline with lots of photos, the original thread the article was written for is in the second link.
