On Another note,two weeks ago another hen was on deaths door. She is 2and half years old.not eating,skn and bone and going into moult but still trying to lay eggs. So the eggs eventually were supposed and the then no membrane even. So Runny yolk was coming out of her vent. I read on here that this causes egg peritonitis . Recommend washing out inside vent with warm salted water with funnel and jug of water. First time nothing improved. Second time in a week it worked and now she is fine.
