Thank you very much. I will look up both of those.

Audrey is 7 or 8 years old and has a soft swollen abdomen. She sits in the nest box for the normal time and then goes about her business as usual but no egg has come.

We have a plastic little dog house for our chickens. Up high beside a window so you can peek in if you like. Rooster ¨Motsy¨ (who got kicked out of the coop) sleeps there at night and eggs get left there during the day.
