Thank both of you. that's what I was worried about. I will make her comfortable andhappy and spoiled until it is time. not long i'm thinking.

I've checked her abdomen and it is quite swollen when I compared her to her sister ( same breed same age) . I looked up egg peritonitis and she has all the signs. I never would have looked that up. Thank you.I was starting to think reproductive issue a little bit based on her age from what I've...

Is there anything I can do? She is pretty swollen, hasn't laid in 2 months, crop issues. It's fairly advanced, I think. We treated the sour crop and impaction. We are giving her colidial silver as an antibiotic. Read my fist post for the rundown if you wish, it is titled," need help, sick...

Farm vets are few and far between here. Regular vets, even avian , wont help.. Shes a barred rock. thank you!

When you say time out, do you mean out of the kennel ad into the run? I was just concerned she would get all bunged up if she starts going after the grasses again. We have mowed and weedwhacked and raked up as much as we can.... She has no visible mites or lice..

Thank you.. I'll let her out for a bit today ..The kennel she is in is huuge. It's for a great dane or rottweiller sized puppers. They other girls usually hang out near her. We are going to be moving her out of the showe ( we really stink lol) and will be putting her in the roost at night.

A lill' bit of back story... One of my girls ( i currently have 2) Has always laid crazy big eggs.. Usually misshapen, sometimes swirled on top. Ridges, flat spots, Huge triple yolkers. I am amazed she hasn't gotten eggbound. Recently she had laid about 2 or 3 huge mega ridged wrikley shells...
