Yes she lay eggs she layed one yesterday but when I saw her coop her egg was crack and I think she ate it.Does she lay eggs?
Have you checked for parasites?
Thankfully no the weather hasn’t gone very hot this week but it has been rainy all week long.Did your weather go from mild to very hot this week? If so, treat for heat stroke with one cup water with a teaspoon of sugar and a pinch of salt and baking soda.
Have you examined her crop? Is it flat and empty or is it full and hard and lumpy?
What does her poop look like?
This is her first time doing it I’m pretty sure it was for accident. We have another hen but they’re separated. We only have 2 hensStill laying is a good sign.
The cracked and eaten egg needs to be dealt with. Once they learn how good they taste, the other hens may learn the trait and it becomes a downward spiral.
Removing eggs frequently and keeping fake eggs in the nest helps. When they try to break a fake egg, it can deter the habit.
She eats corn, pellets, fruits, and bugs. I think she was sick because of the weather it has been rainy this whole week. When I checked on her today she seems back to normal no longer standing still. But I’m worried about her poop.What's her diet? Is she standing like a penguin?
