Hens just standing off by herself

Those are pecking wounds.
@azygous After keeping her in for 3 days and she seems to be acting normal (she finally laid an egg) I’m going to put her back out in the coop and just watch her.

I've had hens with these egg problems that appear to be practically on death's door step recover dramatically after getting the stubborn egg out. This could be something that will never happen again or it could be she has a tendency for this and needs to be watched. With these type hens, I am aware of when they are in a nest box, and I check closely on the fruits of their labor. If I see shell less eggs, I give a calcium supplement immediately and step up my monitoring.
