Sorry, not sure if this is the right forum for this. My broody girl is on day 20, she has only been out a couple of times (poop as evidence) and I have kept feed and water by her at all times, so she has not gone hungry/thirsty. However this morning, as I walked down the garden, there was a great flurry of feathers and she landed on the grass just outside the hutch she has been in. She is pecking furiously at the grass, but can't seem to stand up. Should I do anything? She seems to have lost circulation, or should I just leave her to it?
I kind of mean, should I pick her up and massage her legs, or will this distress her away from her egg - yes, just the one, if its not a loaded one, I don't know what to do next.
Just been to look and she is back in again, don't know how! Will this be a problem if she hatches the chick?
