Hi Everyone, I'm new here and hoping you can help me. One of my chickens layed her first egg yesterday, which was perfect, though smal, and today she hasn't layed, but seems to have egg yolk coming out of her vent, and her vent is continuously pulsing. Otherwise she's acting normally. She's walking around, pecking the ground and happily ate a marigold I offered her. I just watched her take a normal dust bath. Has her second egg broken inside her? The biggest amount of egg yolk-looking stuff was under the roost, as if the egg broke early this morning before she even left the coop, there's also some dribbled down the ramp out of the coop. I did notice her passing some liquid yesterday after she layed her egg as well. I suppose it is possible that another chicken layed the egg and she is egg-bound, but I don't think any of the others are particularly close to laying. Thank you for any help!
