Not sure if my hen is sick

[Chcknlvr123]

This morning when I let my hens out to forage my 7 month olive egger, Fanny Mae, was happily eating grubs and acting normal. This afternoon I noticed her standing by herself, droopy tail, holding her wings lower, looking very lethargic and open mouth breathing. I brought her in and observed her for about 45 minutes and in that time span she pooped three times. All of them were watery with greenish formed parts. The last one was almost completely liquid with no color. She did eat yogurt I gave her and some water I added apple cider vinegar to.

I put her in a box and in my bathroom so I could watch her overnight. When I checked on her again I noticed she laid an egg. It’s odd looking though. She’s an olive egger and normally lays beautiful green eggs, but this egg is not all green patches of lighter colors and very chalky. Should I still be concerned or is that why she’s not feeling well and it’s better now that she laid this egg she’s ok?
I’ve never experienced this in my 6 years of raising chickens.
Someone help!

Sounds like she was having a hard time passing the egg. She's better and perked up now since she laid the egg, so I'd monitor her.

The egg does have excess calcium coating the egg, this is likely from sitting in the shell gland so long waiting to be laid.

See that she's drinking well and eating her normal feed. Provide oyster shell free choice.

If she struggles again, then I'd give her a Calcium Citrate+D3 tablet to see if that helps her expel the egg a little easier.

Did you break this egg open?
Curious as to how thick the shell is.
