My godfather is taking care of my chickens rn(I’m preparing for a move), and he sent me this picture. Idk if this is bad or not, and he didn’t give me much info besides the fact that she is sluggish. She is also 20 weeks old, so he says it might be her time to lay. Could someone explain what may...
