our chicken Daisy died overnight. Yesterday, and we see them everyday, noticed she was isolating, and just standing still. My daughter noticed she was "puffy" and when she picked her up an egg drop out, and then liquid poop with a little white. She had a hard time standing up after that and her breathing was "notable" maybe I would describe as raspy but not fast. We tried to see if her vent was prolapsed and saw a little pink poking out. I poked it back in and then used some vetracyin. She seemed very obviously to be eggbound sick. We isolated her overnight, she was gone in the morning although still warm to the touch. Our worry now is if this was a contagious illness or eggbound issue. She had vent issues when a chick so we always expected she would never lay eggs but seems like she was. She was 9 months old. Thanks for any insight.
