We are new to raising chickens this year. We have had our 6 chickens for about 5 months. Rescently one of our chickens is hunched up her comb is flopped over and has very loose stool. The other chickens have started to chase and peck at her. Ever since they started laying we have only got 5 eggs, not sure which one is not laying. Any ideas to what could be wrong with her?

You may want to try posting in the "emergencies" forum to get a better response. Be sure to include other details like if she has lost weight, if she is eating/drinking, if you have ruled out things like lice/mites, etc.
 
Hello and :welcome

We are glad you joined us! X2 on trailers advice, also could you post a picture of her so that we can get a better look? It may be something serious, and then it may be as simple as the type of breed she is, some breeds combs flop over like that. Hope I can help to see what's wrong with her.

It sounds to me like she could have some sort of internal laying problem, but I'd definitely post in the Emergencies (linked to by NorthFLChick) section for more answers.
