Hi all,

 

I am a bit worried about one of my MSAs. We had been getting 2 eggs per day for about 3 weeks and then we believe we interrupted her during laying as ever since we have only had 1 egg per day between the 2 ladies. They both still come out of their house every day and the only real difference in Daisy is that she is a bit squeaky quacky and she puffs her feathers right out. Is it possible she has a stuck egg? Or is the laying just a bit irregular in the early days? are the behaviours she displays signs of a stuck egg? They have been in their run so I know they have not laid anywhere else in the garden.

 

Hopefully someone can help - if it is a stuck egg then how can I tell when I hold her? What can I do to help her?

 

Many thanks in advance

Hi it sounds like she has gone broody the way she puffs up when you go near they stop laying as well leanne

Yay - thank you soooo much, Leanne! I feel so relieved as I had been so worried that I could lose one. Can't wait until I get used to all of their little ways!

Do you have a drake and will you let her hatch any babies leanne
