last night I discovered that our black Australorp (about two years old) had what appeared to be the remains of a egg shell membrane protruding from her vent. She was already roosting with her sisters so I removed her from the coop and have her isolated. About an hour earlier, I had observed her pass something that looked like it might have been egg material. I am wondering if it is possible that she generated a so called "rubber" egg that collapsed inside the vent and she is now trying to expel the shell membrane? This morning there was still material protruding from her vent. I am at work now and don't have any pics to attach. She otherwise had appeared completely healthy and active earlier that evening for snack time/foraging in the yard. Has anyone else experienced something like this?
