[CHICKENS-101] Silkies

 

We have a silkie that has not moved from her post all day, this is unlike her. She produced her egg for the day and just sits there, you touch her she hisses. My daughter put some food down she ate it. I am new to this we have only had them for about a month now.

We are also holding on to a few for a man until he gets his coup built and I am wondering if his had some kind of infection. We have lost 2 of his. One had a pasty butt that produced an egg the size of a baseball...and it was a double yolk, walked funny for a couple of days and then was found dead the next morning. Another one of his was very slow, we called her lazy, she appears to be AWOL. We cant find her anywhere. Wondering if she crawled off to die.

Now I am wondering if they have infected our chickens....any advice or help?
