Thank you! I'll keep everyone updated on her condition!

So... When I went out to check on her this morning there didn't seem to be any change, so I felt inside of her and no egg.
It was the most disgusting thing I have ever done and will ever do! Bleck! Ick! Yuck!
On to the next step! Rolaids!

How is your hen, pattydarius?

 

[TwinsLoveChicks]

She wasn't eating the Rolaids, so I mixed them in with some yogurt and some chopped strawberries and she nibbled at them a little. I haven't gotten any farther with than that, though.

Should I go ahead with the bath?
Thanks in advance!

Pattydarius, is your hen stamping her feet and shaking her head as if she can't feel her comb or her feet?

 

[TwinsLoveChicks]

Anyone?

 

[Chicken Egg 17]

Idk if there isn't an egg then she probably isn't egg bound

 

[TwinsLoveChicks]

But then what is the problem? She definitely does not feel well. Do you know what I should do?

Does her belly feel like it might be full of fluid? Whatever you do, please do not bathe her, she looks way to sick for that. Can you take her to a vet?
