I am new to the forum, I have 10 Wellsummer hens that will be 2 yrs old this September
Of those I have a hen that is always off by herself & she eats well enough that she’s a good size hen. I have checked all my hens before they initially started laying & all looked well. Recently I had to check on this hen & I checked her vent & it looks like it’s protruding slightly out side the vent area with a small hole for her waste. I checked her pelvic bones under her vent & they have never widened to the egg producing stage! She is still as she was as a young pullet. Has anyone experienced this with a wellsummer? And is there a possibility she will never lay?
