sprry no idea - has she managed to catch a poison mouse or similar? I would get her to a vet as soon as possible.
Staffies are softer than you think.

Hens can't throw up in the same way we do becasue they don't have a diaphragm.

If the bird is sicking up food/water, it is more likely to be a crop blockage so the food can't pass from the crop into the gizzard.

I would seek the advice of a vet.
