ADR is my catch-all term for Ain't Doing Right. My Ancona pullet is about 30 weeks old, has laid a few eggs, her last egg was Thursday the 10th, Friday she was acting too quiet and had what looked like egg white and a soft shell membrane coming from her vent, so I caught her, pulled ever so gently on the membrane and it came out in one piece. She is still quiet, but NOT fluffed or hunched or tail down or straining and she still flies to the rafters at night like she always does. I've seen this poop for the last couple of days and suspect it's hers. After dark I always take her off the rafter and put her on the roost with the other chickens and this poop was under where I put her last night. I locked her in the broody pen this morning so I can watch her and confirm her poop - she normally free ranges. Everything about her looks normal except her poop and her lack of enthusiasm. Yesterday when I fed treats she stood and watched instead of coming running. I thought about egg bound, but if this is her poop, then that wouldn't be it, am I right? All other chickens are acting normal. Am I worrying too much?
