Egg bound hen

Date sort Score sort
My chicken was also egg bound on wednesday. So I tried to put her in warm water but she didnt sit for too long. Then i gave her a calcium tablet orally and next mornibg found a broken egg with a bit of blood on the shell. So i supposed she had passed the egg. She was running fine for an hour or so but again slowed down and acted sick. Today she was still seemingly egg bound so I gavr her another calcium tablet and she went to sit in the nest. Its been quite some time but she hasn't passed an egg. She didn't eat too much today either.
I'm not an expert in feeling vents and stuff but she has become very weak as she was already a small chicken.
It's not her first egg as she laid 2 eggs last week perfectly.
 
That's what happen to my hen.she laid a egg then the next morning she acted egg bound again.buy she wasn't.you have to hold her in the water or she won't stay for long.we soaked our hen for 30 minutes then let her rest for a few minutes.then we did it again and again until the egg came out
 
Also I don't know if she will make i since it's. it good when the egg is broken

soak her again and watch her it sounds like she did not pass the whole egg. this can be dangerous with pieces of the egg cutting her oviduct.
