One of my hens has been acting strange the past few days. She refuses to leave the box that she likes to lay her eggs in. I take her out into the run to make sure she eats and drinks, but after about 10-15 min she will return to her box. She seems healthy, she's able to walk, eat and drink. I did inspect her back side and felt what seems to be an egg protruding out of her vent. I'm scared that she's having a problem laying, if so what do I need to do? Should I try to remove the egg somehow, and separate her from the others? All my hens (I only have 6) seem to get along great, so there is not a pecking order dispute. If you need more info please let me know...........
Please help, I'm really worried and would hate to lose one of my feather babies
She's only 7 months old and a sweetheart, Thank you
