Ok, so this morning I go out to let my girls out and they all come fling out of the coop as usual, except my golden wyndotte that we call Sassy chicken. She is my best chicken as far as being super friendly and she has been a great egg layer. I believe she has been the chicken to give me the rare double yolker once a month or so. So, I am in the coop checking on her and she is still in the roost just sitting, no big deal and I decide to check things out below her and there under a fresh poop is a broken soft shelled egg. Because it was so covered with poop I could not tell if the egg came out whole and then broke because she was on the roost or if only part of the egg came out and part could still be in her. I left her alone this morning thinking it would be fine, but when I checked in the coop this afternoon she was in the coop still and just sitting under the feeder. She kind of looked like she was trying to tuck her tail feathers down. Again I left her alone for a bit and checked her at about 4pm and she was no where to be found. After searching high and low we found her hidden outside in a nest I set up. I knew she could not stay out so I fixed her a nest with some 2 month olds I have and put her in there for the night. Made sure there is food and water that is easy for her to get to. But what is going on with my chicken? Is she going to be ok? She is so outspoken sort of like a three year old! Always wanting the attention and what not. Today she was no where near her normal self. She seemed to be hiding from everyone and her sister chicks to!! Please help! Thanks so much! You all are awesome help!!
