hen is lazy.... normal or not

[1sttimer]

her name is Lacy and she is 1 year old and her comb is layed down and floppy and she just lays down, this morning it looked like she was sleeping eyes closed and everything but when sombody was near her she would roll her neck like she was stretching it. then i went in and picked her up and i set her on a table and she just layed right back down, then, i checked to see if her vent was closed off and i found a glob of poo, not cloggoing but it was stuck, so i went and got the scissors and sniped it off, then i looked at her bum and it had yellow crusty stuff around it, i hope shes ok.

i purchased her in march and she has layed 3 really big eggs since then

Doesn't sound normal to me ... but have no solution for you... sorry.

She may be egg bound when was the last time she laid an egg? what is her diet at the mo?

its been a while since shes laid an egg and ive been feeding her chick starter for my little ones and i was planning on getting all purpose poultry feed tonight. so that may be the problem
