One of my chickens Pumpkin (EE) is just sitting in the nesting box. She has always been a skittish, nervous chicken, but now she is letting me touch her. I don't know what is wrong. She is huddled up in the nesting box, though she sits back down, then stands up when i push her up. Vent looks fine. Anybody? Maybe she is egg bound? I have never dealt with a egg bound chicken. I hope someone can help me soon.
 
Is this me just overreacting? She has never gone broody before, so could that just be happening? She didn't do any signs of broodiness though. I currently have two broodies and she is nothing like them.
 
Bump.
She is looking good today. Pumpkin was out of the box, acting normal, etc. Now She has gotten back in the box. Maybe to lay her egg or is she broody?
