Today as I was going up to my coop to do my normal feeding and cleaning of the coop, I noticed my buff orpington hen standing in the corner on the other side of the coop away from all of the other chickens. I knew something was not right because she is my most active hen. She is always bossing everyone around and always run straight up to me when I bring out the food. She has not been laying either, but I figured it was just some sort of phase as we are just now coming into warmer weather. She has had a little bit of runny poop, but it is not severe. It is only a little bit runny. Her comb is flopped over, but is a normal looking red colour. She is not even interested in her water or food and she was not ruling the coop with her counterpart, Clarice. I separated her from everyone because I did not know if it could be contagious to my other chickens or not. Could she be dehydrated or could she be sick with something ? I also forgot to mention that I do put electrolytes and probiotics in their water. Please help:/ I really do not want to lose her
