Chirping
One of my buff orpington hens (2 years old) has had trouble defecating for months now, with no signs of anything being wrong other than her straining to defecate and only letting out very little at a time. Her feces looks completely normal besides it being very small, and she is showing absolutely no other signs of illness and is acting otherwise perfectly healthy. I've checked her vent and that's all normal too. I have no idea what could be wrong. She was noticeably heavier than my other chicken (I only have two) for a while and may have had a bloated stomach though I'm not sure, but as they've started molting for the winter she is now lighter than the other one is. The other one seems to still be pretty much the same weight. Any thoughts?
