Hello, if anyone can help me I would be so so so grateful...we have four hens right now and one of our white ones (I think it is a leg horn) is very bloated and her bottom very fluffy, like her feathers are all being pushed out. She is very active still, she roams around the back yard with the others, eating, pecking and I think returning to the coop for water. She is a little slower than the others and is definitely waddling more than usual or at least the other white one that I keep comparing her too. We are only getting 3 eggs a day now and I think she may not be laying anymore, or at least for now? She also seems to have some poop stuck to her back feathers, I am not sure why it is stuck there but there is definitely some type of clumping going on. I am not sure if I should be worried or not...I am just trying to be proactive and to stop anything bad from happening if possible...the bloating is pretty obvious there is something, just not sure what. Thanks in advance for any guidance or experience you can give me.
