Naenae is going be the death of me

This girl I popped outside after dinner and after the storms rolled through. The temperatures dropped nicely and the girls were happy to not be so uncomfortable.

Most were gathered by the hedge. I thought they were squabbling over a worm.
Nope.
Naenae has a soft shell egg slide out of her and they were devouring it. Piscia ran over and grabbed the entire shell and gobbled it down.
I couldn't shoo them away they were total vultures.
Meanwhile Naenae just stood there.
I thought she would perk up, but she walked about 5 feet and just stood there, closing her eyes.

Two of other birds were eyeing her backside. I snatched her up and brought her in the house.

As hubby and I set up the chicken infirmary I had kiddo hold her. She laid a full sized egg, but another soft shell. On kiddo's lap.

We are keeping her inside overnight to keep an eye on her.

This poor bird. Even my extra calcium foods to her aren't helping. I don't know what to do.

There's been a few of these with my girl . I bought a support and she is fine now .

I'm not advertising a product but maybe you can try an equivalent where you are.



They love this on their food

Poor girl.
I got this for ours the other week, it just goes in their water no thin shelled ones since (only have had 3 in the month but was concerned, even with new layers)View attachment 2742470

I probably won't catch up on this forum today. I have a very busy schedule. So, good morning, good day, and good evening.
