Hi guys, I treated one of my hens yesterday for being egg bound, she finally passed the egg around 7pm. I have her separated in my house right now. I kept her in the dark yesterday so as to prevent more egg production. I believe she was egg bound for 2 days before I treated her. So I'm planning on checking her for another egg today in case she's backed up. She pooped by herself this morning twice.
I gave her some of her normal feed, some grass, scratch and I crushed a calcium tablet in yogurt which she really likes. She's finally drinking some water too which she wouldn't do yesterday.
Should I be doing anything else for her and when can I let her back out to free range and sleep outside? I made her a nest in the room she's in. Am I supposed to wait for her to lay an egg normally before setting her loose?
