check her for Egg holding/binding! you can do a Search on here for it, for causes, & Cures for it.
But Check soon, as it can lead to death!
My Barred Rock was eggbound yesterday I found her last night laying in the run, labored breathing, swollen Vent area.....Warm Bath & massage, then inserted 3 cc oil into vent, this morning she presented me a 3.2 ounce double yoker (more than Jumbo Sized).
She now has a white Wiretie on her left foot to identify her so I can watch her closely for egg-binding. and ot make sure she gets more oil in her diet.

sorry about Ruby. It is so hard being a mom to these wonderful, frustrating, lovable, laughable creatures. You have given Ruby your best.
