    Hen walking funny/slow, maybe eggbound? Pic.

    Thank you for your support. I'm sorry to say she died this afternoon. It's too bad, I was going to try and drain some of the fluid with my vet-tech friend tomorrow. She was the alpha of the flock.

    Hen walking funny/slow, maybe eggbound? Pic.

    I think your first idea is correct, it makes sense. I remember seeing what looked like a piece of cooked yolk in the coop and wondering where it came from. Thanks for finding that information.

    Hen walking funny/slow, maybe eggbound? Pic.

    One of my hens has started to walk funny. It seems like she can't help but stand up straight. She seems bottom heavy. Her abdomen is firmer than the rest of the hens and a little bigger. I checked to see if she was eggbound but didn't feel anything. About her: 2 years old. Laid wrinkled eggs...

    How long until laying continues after molt?

I'm thinking her machinery has stopped working altogether. I've seen her in the nest box, but she never lays. It was her first molt and the...

    Sandy Deposits on EEs eggs *pics*

    My EE has the same thing on her eggs. Sometimes there's a lot, sometimes there's nothing. Seems to be genetic. Never affects the eggs though. I supplement with oyster shell.

    excess calcium on shells (**pics**)

    My EE started laying eggs with bumpy clusters on it. Most of the time they just wash off. The ones at the tip of the egg are usually permanent. The shells aren't the problem though, I cracked open one of the eggs and found some of these clusters in the whites. They are just little spheres of...

    hen racket at dawn

    One of my three leghorns is very vocal every morning at 6 am. She doesn't even come out of the coop. They also get a little noisy when they see me come out. One of them has just started laying, but I never get an egg in the morning.
