    egg yolk peritonitis?

    Spoke too soon. The implant has worn off and our girl laid an egg. It was normal, not soft or misshapen which is good. Looks like she has another waiting to lay. We've been giving her kale everyday. Hopefully that will help with the calcium and laying normal hard shelled eggs. We'll just have to...

    I'm sorry I don't know the particular bacteria that was detected (my daughter got the results) originally she was given Tmp-Smz 480mg tablet, 1/4 tablet very 12 hours. After the culture came back she was switched to Clavamox 375mg tablets, 1/2 tablet every 12 hours. She hates the meds at this...

Our vet removed the yolk that...

    Thousands, literally. I stopped counting because it's too depressing. But she's my responsibility and there was no other choice besides putting her down.
