So my almost 6 year old chicken (her name is flower//I didn’t name her my 6yr old cousin did lol) laid a weird egg over a month ago but I wasn’t able to confirm that it was a lash egg cause it was more like an abnormal egg but I had no idea which of my 11 chickens had laid it either. I’ve been...
Hi, I browsed around but most lasheggs looked like brownish funky eggs with layers in them. What I found kinda looks like that? But very white and more dry than rubbery. This is my first experience so I'm just looking for some confirmation.
I was cleaning out my Crested flock's chicken run...
My RIR Sugar is sick :(
she hasn’t laid a normal egg in a year, always soft eggs.
2 weeks ago she started acting really sick. She wouldn’t move or eat. We rushed to the emergency vet and on the way there she laid a lash egg. The vet (who was an avian vet) had no idea what a lash egg was or...
Hello all!
I had a hen lay a lash egg this morning. She's been acting off for a while: pale comb, not laying, sitting around more than usual. In the last week she has seemed to be doing better, but there was a lash egg under her spot on the roosts this morning. I am not going to euthanize her...
...what I believe is a Lash Egg. It was firm with no shell and was expelled with the other tissue shown in the photos.
Our research into lasheggs describes a nasty internal/reproductive infection in the bird that is usually fatal. So, my question:
Since she has since gone back to laying as...
I have seen two of these things in the last month/month and a half. I have a mixed flock of 14 chickens some are 2 years old some are 4 1/2. I have no idea who is laying this and they all “seem” healthy. It’s about the size of a large green grape and rubbery. If it is a lash egg is there...
Hi,
My egger recently laid a soft egg...I didn't know it was her at the time. I gave extra calcium though they were already getting it.She before this had been acting like she wasn't feeling well. She wasn't moving much. Just kind of laying around with her eyes closed... .Then 2 nights ago I...
Hi All :frow
I discovered this little weirdo in my Cemani coop today. The girls range from just under two to about 20 wks.
I’ve never had any of these hens/pullets give me any unusual eggs, but not sure if this a first for the youngest. Super thin shell - I broke up the mystery clump and it...
I just found my first and hopefully last lash egg. The other chickens ate it. So this is from a viral infection? Not sure which chicken it came from. Any chance that the chicken that laid it will be ok? I don't see any signs of sickness. I have never seen this before.
I have no idea what chicken laid this egg but I’m honestly surprised I didn’t vomit cutting it open
Unlike normal lasheggs you find on internet it was pretty much like a soft shell egg with some shell developing and bacteria got inside before it was even laid
I can tell as it doesn’t look...
Hey, I've got a Lavender Orpington hen of ~4 years old (weighs 6.4 lbs - nice and lovely feathers) that was standing away from our flock yesterday - tail down and moving slowly. We brought her home to watch for her intake of water (I added electrolytes) and have grit available.
She hasn't laid...
Went to give the girls snacks this afternoon and found a lash egg in the water bowl (of course)... no idea who it came from out of my 12 hens. One barred rock has a pale comb but everyones acting normal.
Do I need to put antibiotics in the water for all hens? We just cleaned the coop and nest...
Hi all,
My 4 year old Partridge Rock hen Olivia Jade had a dirty butt as we are getting some really nasty winter weather today. I took her in for a wash and blow-dry of the area and found a hard warm mucus mass outside her vent with a tether still into her vent. It is the size of an...
Hey everyone. I'm hoping to get some help for my sick chicken. She's a 2 year old White Leghorn. She came in the house a couple weeks ago due to a lack of appetite and being generally lethargic. She "laid" a lash egg that was about the size of a Nickel or so.
I gave her 2 doses of LA 200 and...
I have a hen that laid a yolk and a soft shell egg while on the roost at night on the poop tray there was a broken yolk. I was hoping someone laid a shell less egg and they started to eat it. She did well and kept laying normally a couple weeks after that. But now I think she laid the yolk and...
Unfortunately I don't have a photo. I do have two videos I attached.
Mushroom had trouble passing her first egg on Tuesday. I gave her 600mg of calcium carbonate (meant to be citrate, oops) that evening. The next two eggs came out fine.
This morning she spent 90 minutes in the nest box...
I let my chickens out this morning and Jeanette - My ISA Brown chicken - laid a lash egg. I know, yes, it is common for ISA Brown hens to have egg laying issues later on in their lives but I have never seen anything like this before in my 5 years of keeping chickens. Jeanette has been going down...
Hi, I have been finding a lot of broken eggs in my chicken house recently. As well as getting some eggs with thin, papery or jelly shells. There are some older (3-4 year old) warren (uk term for hybrid intensive layer breed) hens in the group.
Tonight I found an unbroken jelly egg with what...
