Tonight when I went out to close up the coop, I walked in on one of my females was jerking back and forward with her head down towards her body. It looked like she was having a seizure or choking so I was checking her out but then she just dropped an egg right on my lap. She seemed really dazed afterward and didn't move when I approached her again. And earlier this evening she seemed completely fine.
I tried searching it up but couldn't find anything. This is her first year laying and they have been laying since late February (had to use a heat lamp and it kick-started their laying season) so this wasn't her first egg but this is the first time I've actually seen them lay so I don't know if this happened before.
Is this normal for the first year? should I supplement something in their feed to make laying easier? I haven't supplemented calcium yet (waiting for stock to refill) but the egg seemed normal with a complete firm shell
