Guinea hen egg

[lealin]

My 10 month old hen laid one egg 2 days ago. She now walks sporadically around zifs most of the time and hasn't gone I to the coop since laying the egg Is she egg bound? Should I put her in t he coop or leave her be?

You might try asking that question in either the Guinea Fowl forum or in the Emergencies and Injuries forum . Someone over there might have a better idea what's going on or how to help.

I hope she feels better!

Guineas kinda do their own thing. Please check out the Guineas thread to learn more about them. Some handle confinement others will head for the highest tree branches.
