Odd Behaviors

[NewMomma]

My little laying bantam has started acting odd these last few days. The two hens she grew up with are now picking on her and she hasn't laid an egg in a couple days. She now sits up in a nesting box and broods all day long. She doesn't even lay on an egg all the time. I'm worried because she's really distanced herself and she isn't laying. I don't know what could be wrong with her. I don't want to have something happen to my baby girl... Any advice welcome

Are you certain that she has not gone broody?

Well I'm not 100% sure. We have no roosters though and she just won't stay out of the henhouse. It is way to hot for her and I'm afraid she'll overheat if I just leave her be.

Now, none of my hens are laying. I'm really worried, I don't know if there's a psychological thing going on there or what but no eggs and unhappy babies
