Ness3103 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 not sure if i should be worried ebony started laying this week and i've noticed she seems to be holding her tail down ever since. she layed a beautiful egg and then a softie on monday but since then we've had lovely double yolkers she's still eating, drinking and pottering around so seems ok. is it anything to worry about or am i just doing too much chook watching (that's oh's theory ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 My columbian Black tail does that when she got a softy or two on the way but with in 5 or 10 minutes its normally back in the air. could be the double yolker and the softy made her a bit sore or there's another softy on the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
