The hen in my avatar somehow stripped one of her tonails off...nothing left but the quick. Ouch!!
I put her in a crate overnight in the coop so that the others wouldn't pick on her. I let all the birds free range together today.
She normally lays an egg a day. No egg from her yesterday or today. She was just hanging out on a ledge in the coop so I
know it hurts her. I've separated her again tonight.
Is it normal that she wouldn't lay an egg with such a minor injury? I know her eggs because she is the only one to lay a large
taupe egg.
