Chicken popping out yolk

I agree with @KikisGirls. She needs more nutrition. Corn by itself in large doses is actually quite bad for chickens, it is intended to be a treat. If you have a feed store nearby people can help you on which kind of feed to get or at least other people on here because I am not good with feed :p
 
Welcome.
No that is not a good diet.
She needs a complete poultry feed.


Unfortunately she may have an infection that may or may not be "fixable."
Is a vet an option. She will need antibiotics.

BYC has an APP!
Is there anything else I can do besides taking her to the vet?!
 
Can be if it regresses to the lungs! It will cause pneumonia! but that's not very likely.
It's a virus, an infection in the shell gland. Once a carrier always a carrier. That's why BIOSECURITY is paramont.
What can I do to kill the infection?
 
I definitely will be changing her feed! Do you know exactly what type of food to give her?

Like the names? etc?
Not exactly. It really depends on age, laying habits, etc. I use organic crumbles currently and supply free-choice oyster shell (to make eggshells stronger, although I don’t know what good it will do for your hen). Hopefully someone will help out :p
 
I agree! Use organic layer crumbles. you will get these...
