I'm a new chicken owner. Bernice is an 18 week old Cinnamon Queen who started laying on 8/10. She's the first of my five girls to start. After laying 4 perfect little eggs, she then laid two soft-shell eggs on 8/15. Afterward she squawked in an urgent fashion while standing in her wading pool. Since then she's laid no eggs and has progressively isolated herself, both while in the run and while foraging.
Today she refused to go back in the run (even tho she's usually the first in for treats) and is currently hiding under the shed next to the run. She has a white substance running from her backside that I tried to blot with papertowel. I think it is poo. She did not like that and then went under the shed. Any help much appreciated.
