And this was another reply from Backyardchickens from another contributor.

Do you have nightshade growing in your fields? Or jimson weed? Do you have cherry trees? I think she has some kind of poisoning. You need to take her off the field and feed her hay and dose her with activated charcoal in kayro syrup. If it is cherry poisoning then the kayro syrup will counteract the cyanide. If it is jimson or nightshade the charcoal will help absorb the poisons. Jimson will cause permanent damage and animals poisoned by this have flashbacks like acid trips. Nightshade if it doesn't kill the animal can make them unthrifty. Good luck.
