Hello dollybird,
someone with more experience will be along soon but in the meantime have you separated her from the others as they will peck at her. Can you see if she has a prolapse?Has she been laying regularly?
I would keep her secluded,warm and quiet until you are given moreadvice.

did she lay ok yesterday? No broken egg etc?
Had she been pecked in the vent area?
Don't keep her seperated for too long as you may have trouble re-introducing her. As soon as she perks up, spray her vent area with purple spray to hide any redness and get her back with the others but keep a close eye on her just in case of any further problems.

 thank you she is seperated but next to the others where do i get the purple spray from will somewhere like pets at home have it i we had the usual 6 eggs from 6 chickens yesterday and the only out of ordinary thing was 2 days back next doors cat got stuck and made a awful noise till they got her free and thr hens went inside and wouldnt come out for a good few hours could this stress have done something to her
