Chicken acting weird.

New Hampshire Red (Ruby). Pretty slow and sometimes still this evening. Standing with butt up a lot. Egg bound? She has laid one egg but none others that I know of. Laid 4 or 5 days ago.

Ruby just answered my question. Soft shell egg.

And then laid another soft shell 15 minutes later.

They can act very strange when a softie is coming down the pike....it kinda cracks me up, after I got over freaking out that she was sick.
Not unusual for a new layer to have thin/softshelled eggs at first...even multiples.
Can take up to a month or so for things to smooth out.
