My pullet just started laying eggs, about two days ago she laid me a lovely little mint egg, tonight I checked on her and she was standing there with a soft shelled egg on the ground. She seemed a little bit in discomfort and me being a worried chicken mom I decided to look up her symptoms and saw that it has happened to other people's new layers and they eventually snapped out of it, which she did. I checked on her again and noticed yellow poop and long stringy membrane looking pieces that she ended up eating and she's acting fine, drinking some water, pooping normally again, she's very alert. I don't really know much about being egg bound but I'm worried and I don't want her to end up with an infection or something. She is a house chicken by the way, and she is on layer pellets.
