Help! my chicken is sick

[ilovemyfowl]

My speckled Sussex is acting strange. she is not laying but is just sitting on the eggs the other girls lay, she is not eating much unless I hand feed her and even then she won't eat much, and she isn't aware of her surroundings. I really worried.

I wanted to call a vet and see what I should do but I wanted to ask yall first.
Any suggestions?

Could she be showing signs of being broody?

I think that when a hen does that she is called a broody hen this is supposed to be fine she want to hatch the eggs they say its normal

I think she's probably broody. If she is, it's totally normal.

Do you want her to hatch eggs? She won't lay while she's broody.
