My whole flock is sneezing with runny noses and shaking their heads but I think it's just from the runny noses. I have two laying hens. Ones egg turned from green to blue and has stopped laying eggs altogether now and the other is laying less frequently and has laid a slightly rigged egg and now a shell less egg less than 24 hours after she laid the last one. The shell less egg was found under the roost in the coop and that was her first time ever laying outside the box. I know it was less then 24 hours after because my husband and I were outside all yesterday and I saw her lay the rigged one and them my husband and I added another roosting bar and there was not the shell less egg in the coop at the time which was right when the chickens went to bed that night. Both eggs are white and she is my only white egg layer. Anywho could this be ibv? If so what do I do? This is my first flock and I'm really scared that I might lose them. Any help would be amazing! I don't have a vet close to me that takes chickens and the only store close for farm animals is big R.
