    Reproductive Problems

    Update: Unfortunately she wasn't getting any better she was still eating and drinking and acting well sometimes but she also started laying the shell-less eggs almost every day.

    Reproductive Problems

    Update: Our Chicken had her round of antibiotics and has been doing well. This morning we found a lash egg under where she usually roosts. We know that means she probably won't have much longer with us but she is still acting very well. We will let her go on as long as she is thriving.

    We didn't ask about breed from the vet and our friend just knows she has chickens she doesn't know exact breeds.

    Thank you for your info, we got our chickens by hatching eggs from a family friend and I wouldn't have gotten any sexlinks on purpose. What matters to me is quality of life so if she continues going downhill we will end her suffering.

    I do have a question, is peritonitis curable? Or is it a life long thing?

    Thank you both for your replies. We found a vet to take her to and the vet says she thinks it's peritonitis. We were prescribed antibiotics and we will see what happens.

    I'm not sure, I haven't heard of that? Is that when the calcium doesn't absorb properly?

    Yes she has 24/7 access to oyster shell. I have considered calcium deficiency but the other hens are completely fine and we gave her calcium citrate with d3 supplements for a week and it didn't harden her shells at all.

    I would like to add that until February she was laying normal eggs

    Reproductive Problems

    One of our hens has had reproductive problems for around 2 months now. It started in February with her laying extra large eggs (104-110 grams) and then it seemed she would rotate between laying soft-shell or shell-less eggs. Well now she has just been laying only shell-less eggs. Before she lays...
