Now not so happy, my poor chook is still sick. She's no worse and still eating. Prefers plain rice and won't eat or drink anything with an additive such as vitamins or wormer. She doesn't even like the mackerel in the rice.
Here's my brahma egg from yesterday and day before. She's been laying for about a month.
It's hard to photograph but there is a bulge in a section of each egg, the old one having collapsed on itself. The bulge appears translucent. She has been laying very thin, barely any shell there eggs. I have been putting it down to first eggs and will improve. Now I wonder though if I need to give her some help. They are tiny eggs and her sisters are three times the size - although long bullet shaped as if they have small canals.
Oh and also, the egg from yesterday is also body checked (did I get that right Fancy thanks I never knew the name for that)
