Cazjohn Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Hi All, Picked up three POL at the weekend, two fine the third is a Light Sussex Cross and she is eating, drinking and pooing well but takes every opportunity to have a sleep, today she went to the nest box twice but hasn't laid so far, I know that Sussex are supposed to be docile but is all this sleeping right? I've only had ex-batts before so not used to dealing with such young girls, Thanks in advance, Caroline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 It will indicate a problem. I would take her back to the breeder and ask them to examine her. It could be laying problem but equally illness. I have one with respiratory infection and the only sign was keep sleeping until today when she started a rattle. The breeder will give you advice or replace her. May be worth ringing first as she may have others with a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
