I had a year old crested cream legbar that became eggbound. I tried giving calcium, lubing her vent, and manual removal but she sadly passed away. I decided to do a necropsy myself to see how severe the issue was because I could definitely feel the egg but couldn't ever see it at her vent.
Again these are graphic pics so if you are squeamish you probably don't want to look.
When I cut her open yellow liquid yolk came out meaning her abdomen was full of egg yolks, sacs with yolks, and a giant "egg" that was about 4 inches long.
Upon cutting open the blockage egg it was actually a lash egg.
Had I known how bad it was I would have culled her the first day I noticed her acting lethargic.
