Egg bound please help

it's not s

I wouldn't say it's swollen but it is slightly puffy. Is 2 old for a chicken she's been laying eggs none stop for two years with the odd miss. If it worsens I'll call the vet but they don't deal with chickens so it may be difficult finding one

It depends on the breed - two years of solid egg laying is 'old' for a Hyline or an Isa Brown. The fact your hen has been laying non stop as those breeds were bred to do - puts her into the high risk category for EYP.

She's a hybrid this winter was her first stop for laying she stopped from around October through to February
