@Wyorp Rock Thanks so much for your feedback. Been giving her Calcium and will keep you updated. Nothing yet. I did check her crop this morning, it's emptying overnight ok, but agreed, she seems tense and uncomfortable. :( Really no change yet, hoping the vitamin boost will help turn things around.
@BigBlueHen53 Thanks so much for your response! She has never gone broody before, just the Cochin I have (and man, she is a mean broody hen! haha). As mentioned above, I would say this happened after she and the other hens molted, grew back feathers, and then the weird behavior started.
Thanks...
This is great, just added! We are located North of Oakland in California. I would say this all started after she completely molted. If she was egg bound, wouldn't she be extremely sick by now?
I was curious if the cold weather had anything to do with it. It never has happened in the past...
Hey everyone,
I have a 2 year old Buff Orpington hen, BokBokChoy, who has been acting very strange the past 3-4 weeks. I noticed one day, her tail was down and she wasn't moving much. I immediately brought her in as she was displaying signs of being egg bound. I made up a comfy crate for her in...
