Ended up being a double Yolker!

I was just wondering the same thing my poor Oliver just started to lay and this was her 4th egg poor girl she is good to go but my oh my they can lay some pretty big ’s

Oh yes the first couple of days she couldn’t walk she would walk very unstable and now she is walking much better eating and drinking a lot better then before she now can aim at the dish the only thing now is her head shaking uncontrollably and hangs her head down

Nothing that I can think of she is 25 weeks nothing has changed in routines or new chickens she isn’t laying yet only one of my Oliver’s are laying just started last week

If it is marked would my other chickens not have it as well? They all seem to be doing great if it is maybe I caught it intime I’m give her wheat germ to see if this help her out

Update my hen seem to be a lot better her head is still shaking has anyone ever heard of a chicken with lack of vitamin e? I think she has what’s called Encephalomalacia it’s a vitamin E deficiency also called the crazy chicken

They do free range during the day I will take a walk around and see if I notice anything

I did take a sample of the poop and it was fine the vet said it must of been something she ate and no she hasn’t laid an egg yet and no her poop is back to normal she is eating layers mash and I am giving her cracked corn as we’ll table scraps when I have them mostly vegetables
