I have another RIR brooding - shes been sitting on eggs about 10 days now. And shes not looking so good. Weak, comb is pink instead of red and flopped over. This happened to me this spring with another RIR hen, she sat and would not get up to eat and drink, she starved her self to death
I have my son coming over to help me get her out of the nest box and I'm going fo feed her with a eye dropper, then sit her back in the nest box.
Any ideas why this is happening with my RIRs? They are heritage RIR not the production ones.
Best i can tell shes sitting on 7 eggs.
