Lash egg???

[Farmlife16]

I found this in the coop today. The hen I suspect is a year old Easter egger who has had laying problem from the start. She's laid an "egg inside and egg" multiple times. Do you think this lash egg is a result of her reproductive issues or is she sick with an infection?

A lash "egg" represents pus from infection. Since she is so young, I definitely would treat her with amoxicillin. If it's addressed soon enough, there is a chance she can lick it. Order it here. https://www.kvsupply.com/item/aqua-mox-250mg-capsules-100-count/P06184/ One capsule daily for ten days directly into her beak.

Can the infection spread to other hens?

No. It's hers alone.
