Georgia my CW started sitting in a nest-like depression in the coop shavings this morning. I didn't think too much of it. An hour later she was still there. (Some of mine like to take their sweet time laying, so again, I didn't start worrying.) After the second hour, I shooed her away and expected to find an egg. There wasn't one.
She went right outside the coop door and laid down in the shade. (It is 81* here today.) I put fresh water and some food near her, but she wasn't interested. She didn't seem lethargic, just like she wanted to sit still. The whole flock went off free-ranging and left her there, and she still didn't move.
Hours later, she now seems quite lethargic. She did lay a small egg outside, and moved a bit. Now her breathing is labored, and she keeps closing her eyes. Any thoughts? Remedies I could try? My poor girl...
Georgia was hatched on 10/1/10.
Thanks for any help!!!
