Hi. I found my chicken Chickadee in the nestbox this morning and thought she was just laying an egg but then I went back a few minutes ago and she was still in the nextbox and very lethargic.
I brought her inside and she had a very runny bloody poop with some "fleshy" looking chunks. I am suspecting that she might be egg bound. She is not interested in eating. I am going to go get some Calicum Citrate and give that to her, but what else should I do? What other symptoms should I look for. Her tummy feels a little firmer (not hard like cancer tho) than ususal, but I didn't feel any obvious eggs when I quickly felt her tummy. Attatched are pictures of her, the poop and the wierd 'fleshy' chunk that was in the poop.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
