One of my chickens swallowed the squishy part of the earphone ( the white part of the earphone below)

Does anyone know if my chicken will be able to digest it safely?

I'm guessing it's not a small chick that swallowed it. I've seen mine swallow some things that I thought would hurt them for sure yet they are all still doing well. Not sure if it will actually digest or just get ground into small pieces and pass through. I really don't know of any options to remove it though.

I'm not an expert,"ex" is a has been and a "spurt" is a drip under pressure!

You could try giving her a little piece of bread with a lot of mineral oil. That might help move things along.
