One of my Golden Comets has just started to lay. I have 2 others that have been laying just fine, nice hard shells. This hen is having problems though. The day before yesterday I noticed her standing around the coop with tail down. I brought her inside the house and looked her over. When she would poop, it was watery pale yellow. No appetite at all. I gave her a warm bath and massaged her abdomen. About 45 minutes later, she laid a soft weird looking egg with the white but no yolk . The next morning, she was fine again - tail up, good appetite, normal poop, so I returned her to the coop. Later in the day, I found another soft shell egg in the coop. Now she is having the same problem again. Can anyone tell me what is going on? Thanks for any help.
