She hasnt laid an egg in a veryyyy long time, hasn't moulted yet, and acts weird. She doesn't eat leaves from my hand like the other chicken does. She always seems to follow me around. I saw her sitting in the nesting box this moring then i checked again, and still no egg! She is living in the same conditions as the other chicken, but it's only her thats weird. I cant afford a vet so please dont ask me to go see a vet.
Now back to the vent, its really dirty. Poo it stuck on the feathers and even if she bathed in sand like she usually does, that doesnt help. How do I clean it without getting sick?
And is she sick? :(
Thank you all lovely people in advance :)
