Well, my lovely EE hen is coloring up , looking like she's getting close to laying! She is ~16 weeks.
She has a very large "bump" on her right front chest area. Is this the developing egg region where I will see her fullness due to egg production? Or is there another reason for the large bump? I'm not exactly sure anatomically if this is her crop?
She eats normally, voraciously lately, and free ranges part of the day (no hay), gets grit, ACV in her water, and grower crumbles to eat.
Any thoughts as to why there is a bump there so large?
