No she is not, she is 20weeks old and hasn’t started even showing signs of being ready to lay.

Thank you so much for the reply! I have not looked in her beak/throat, what is the best way to do that? I will feel around for an egg to see if it is stuck. Thanks againHave you looked inside her beak to see if she has anything lodged in her throat since she is scraping the beak and has a cough/sneeze bock.
Is she pooping?
I would gently insert a gloved, lubricated finger about 1-2" inside the vent just to make sure she doesn't have an egg stuck.
Do what you can to keep her hydrated and let us know if you see or feel anything.
This has good directions on how exactly to check for a stuck egg:

I tried to do the vent check but I couldn’t, I’m sorry. Her vent is super small and she just wasn’t letting my finger go in. I feel horrible right now. I don’t have anyone to help me with the beak at the moment, I’m so stuck and it’s really frustrating. I’m trying everything I can but it’s hard. Gee now I’m crying, I’m sorry. Thanks for all of your help so far you guys
