Swollen between back legs

[crookedtoe]

My oldest chicken ( 5 Years ) is walking very strange. legs far apart, and her underbelly between her legs is very big. She has some runny yellow poop as well. A little slower than usual.not feeling well. eating some though. Would anyone know what could be wrong with her? Thanks

Could she be egg bound?

Sounds like internal laying.

It does sound like internal laying. You could put her on antibiotics and try draining her. There are lots of good threads here about that just make sure you do it on her right side behind the leg. Read up on it and do it carefully at an angle.
