Hello Casey and welcome to the forum.  :)

She may have a respiratory infection in which case she may need broad spectrum antibiotics.  How is her breathing?
 
Does she have a temperature?  You can take this by feeling under The wing of one of your other hens then under her wing to see if she feels warmer.

what does her crop feel like?

I am not an expert and I'm sure others will be along to advise you.  In the meantime good luck and keep us posted.

I would get her to a vets to get them to test for mycoplasm.
Staffies are softer than you think.

My advice would be to take her to the vets for some antibiotics a.s.a.p. Good luck.
