Update: we have landing! Fawna laid her first egg!!! My first egg on my first flock! Such exciting times! And she’s an over achiever too.. shell is strong!
My girl Fawna keeps walking around and looking for a dark place almost like she’s in distress. She’s pacing and talking almost like in a distressed tone. I’ve been thinking she’d be the first to lay based on her comb and rattle coloring. She is an ISA brown too. I keep taking her to the coop and calmly petting and telling her it’s normal what she’s feeling and she just needs to relax in the coop. However, Monday is 16 weeks which is about 2 weeks early for egg laying. This is the week I’m bringing out the oyster shells. Am I right thinking this is entry to egg laying behavior? I’m also seeing her but fluff pulseate if that makes sense. All I think of when I see her is like when we can’t make it to the bathroom quick enough. I’d imagine that may be the pressure building by the vent? I got them egg training eggs and she’s also been trying to move them around and notice them. Looking for thoughts and advice. Anything I can do to help her? She’s in the coop banging around right now.
