Sonia, what are you feeding her for her regular diet?
It's possible she isn't tolerating chicken well. First thing I'd do is get her to a vet and talk to him/her about introducing more of a red meat diet. Duck, venison, beef, pheasant, etc. are often tolerated better than chicken products.
In the mean time, be sure to give her plenty of water. If you see she's not taking in enough on her own, try to syringe her a bit, just as much as she'll take without a fuss.
How is her energy level?
If you're changing her diet around quite a bit, this could cause loose stools. It can take a couple of days for a change in diet to normalize in the system.
Keep us posted!
