My lavender orpington is panting, her breathing sounds slightly labored, and she didn't eat any cut corn when I gave it out. It's not a hot day, and she had fresh cool water. Looked her over - no injuries, no signs of injury, vent is clean, feathers in great shape. Should I be concerned? What might be wrong? She just started laying this week, and sings the egg song LOUD before laying, but she's not today.
I'm a bit paranoid about her, since the other local lavender orpingtons have all died shortly after the point of lay, just getting listless and dying with no external issues.
