Egg bound? Or just taking a while?

Hi! My chicken who started laying a month and a half ago has been in the meeting box for around an hour and a half. Is that normal? She's acting fine, she just usually is quicker than this. New overprotective chicken mom here.

Well, it's not exactly abnormal. Is she still acting as if she's fine ?

She’s fine. An egg bound hen will stand like a penguin and pulsate it’s tail up and down and be in very obvious discomfort. She’ll probably lay faster once she’s older and her reproductive system has matured, or she may just like to take her time.

I will go check on her.
