Is this normal behavior?

[Chickenheadmate]

I keep my leghorn with her remaining chick in a dog crate because a snake ate some of her eggs then it started to eat chicks, two at a time.
I've noticed that the hen will wait to poop until she's out the crate.
Is this normal?

That's a good hen - not wanting to foul her 'nest'.

She's a small leghorn, is there a reason why her poops are big and solid? (Doesn't worry me, just curious.)
Never runny or small like the other hens.

If shes eating a lot then her poops just might be big, as long as its nothing worth concerning over

Typical broody poops.
She has to hold onto it all the time she's in the nest.
She's doing a good job. I've had broody hens go whenever they want. Which you do not want.
Chickens poop all day. Your hen can't, so it builds up, and then she lets it out all together. Not nice for her, but she's just being clean

My BCMs eats a tone more and has never pooped that much.
Thanks to everyone for the replies.
Blessed night
