Pullet laying 1 egg a week

She's still considered a new layer so her body might not be regulated yet. Is the egg you're getting normal in size, color and shell composition? Does it contain a healthy yolk?
Does her poop still look normal? Vent remains clean?
They are good at hiding when things are wrong so just continue to monitor her behavior. Since it is normal currently and she is laying an egg weekly I wouldn't worry yet.
Like Turkeys provided good insight with internal laying issues.
Thank you for your reply. The eggs she lays have been elongated in shape, but standard size/weight. Not sure if the elongated egg shape means anything. The shell composition has been fine, yolk looks healthy, poop looks normal, vent remains clean.

I will keep monitoring, I guess I'm worried she's internal laying, but when I feel her abdomen it feels squishy like the others. I will check again today and report back.

It just means it's her style. Perfectly normal. We have an Orpington that lays an elongated shaped egg, sort of pointy on one end. She's been doing it consistently for months so I know it's just the shape of her egg.
