My young pullet has been laying eggs everyday for about a month. She seems to lay her egg late morning. When I go out around 9am she is on her nest for a long time. Usually find the egg later so not sure when. She is the alpha of my flock of three others. At 8am she was out with the other chickens. Later today noon on she was in the box all day. Well I went out at 3pm and she was still laying in the box, I felt under her and pulled the egg, she didn't move. Well I went back out tonight and she was still laying in the box. I picked her up and put her on the standing pole they all sleep on at night. I noticed the others where all confused tonight as they usually cuddle together and were spread out from each other. I petted her and hope she is okay. I was thinking of going back out tonight to see if she was back in her nest or not. Very strange behavior, I have no roosters.
