Not sure what is wrong with your girl. Being broody, she could have a vitamin deficiency as they barely eat and drink for weeks. The molt is normal for a broody--the restricted diet does that to them. I hope your girl snaps out of it. At least, I do know what is wrong with Reba, though there may be more going on than I'm even aware of inside of her. Since she is the only one here who has ever had this walking thing accompanying the internal laying and her intestines are also affected, I'd like to open her up to see what went on in there. Not sure DH will do it-this is his girl and he is so soft hearted, that some of them, he hates to do that to, even though it's been so educational over the years.
ETA: I fear today is the day for Reba to leave us after checking on her this morning.
She fought the good fight, but this dang internal laying crud always wins.
