My chickens are now three years old and have caused me no problems until now! We have a Black Star, Gold Star and Amber Star. The Black Star is laying very wrinkled eggs and today laid a soft one. The Gold Star seems to also have been laying soft eggs and the Amber star is acting very unwell with drooping tail and walking funny. Reading up on this it seems she may be an internal layer - she has been laying soft eggs for a number of weeks - or she may be egg bound. We have given her a warm bath and some olive oil but she seems very uncomfortable and has a big belly.
I have bought some Flubenvet and will try worming them tomorrow although I have been using Vermx regularly for about a year. Any suggestions as to what might be wrong with them? I was wondering if it could be viral?
