HI,
I have been on this website for a while now but couldn't think of what to say. But I do have a question... I have had my chickens for a few months now, I think they are about 7-8 months. I went to let them out yesterday and 1 wouldn't leave the coop, they were out for a few hours but she never left. I thought maybe she was not feeling well or my husband thought maybe she was getting ready to lay so she didn't want to leave the nest area? But she was ok with getting out today when I let them out. When I went to collect the eggs, I saw one in the middle of the coop floor, which is weird for my girls. There were 4 more where they usually lay in the corner, but 2 were a real light color and 1 even looked funny, it was more flat than the others, it had ridges on it and is lighter in color than normal. I am also a worrier and I have lots of other questions but this will do for now. Thanks, any answers are appreciated.
