Sorta new at this keeping chickens thing. I've got a hen that's clearly ill. What to do? Take to a vet? Euthanize it?

Where do you let her run? Keep her seperate, in the house if you can, good food and good water. Id do a quick overview of the area and make sure she didnt get into anything. I lost a few hens because dementia granny used to toss kitty litter in the yard and they ate all those pebbles.

She runs the entire, regular suburban backyard alll day. Her crop feels clear. She eats nice kibble, meal worms, scratch grain, and some of my garden.
What's odd, or a blessing, is that the others are fine.
