Matilda our almost year old sablepoot has been on her nest for what seems like hours today. I think that she is too young to be broody & seems to be straining to lay her egg. She lay two days ago with no problem as far as I know that is. The other girls have been sitting with her for support. Her comb isn't as bright as normal, but isn'tpale either.
Our girls free range in the garden & have an organic diet of layers pellets supplemented with their night time treat of some corn. My son has fed them some fruit bread yesterday which they absolutely adore. The other girls are ok & showing none of the signs that Matilda is.
I'm not sure if she is egg bound. Suggestions would be welcome.
