My 2 year old Sapphire gem is acting weird. Yesterday she spent most of the day in the nesting box. Was acting a little off.
Today, she’s been sitting around, panting. It was about 70 degrees here today.
She does not seem to be straining, but her abdomen is slightly swollen. Does not feel like a balloon, but mushy.
Her vent seems dry and small for a hen that should be laying. I’m not sure when she last layed an egg, as I have many hens.
They are fed layer feed with OS on the side.
I have her separated for now. Could this be internal laying? All help is appreciated.
