My Chicken Just Laid Two Eggs

[Enchanted Sunrise Farms]

My chicken Buttercup just laid two eggs! She was acting funny an hour ago so i brought her inside. Her beak was hanging open, she seemed stressed, and she was walking funny. i gave her water and some cucumber. Just went to check on her and found two eggs in the carrier with her, one regular egg and a soft shelled one that had broken open. She's eating that one now. So glad she's okay. But this is sure one for the record books!

OMG, poor thing. That had to have been mighty uncomfortable. I'd keep an eye out for egg binding with her. Sounds like her "egg timer" system isn't functioning properly.

As far as i know, this is the first time for her. She's about 3-1/2 years old. Most in that group don't lay regularly. i'm lucky to get a couple eggs every few days out of those 11 girls.
