It’s funny how they each have their own idiosyncrasies and preferences. Our girls don’t seem to care for the BSFL! 😅 They leave them behind and pick out the mealworms- but I didn’t know they had calcium! I’ll keep trying

So sorry for your loss…we had the same thing happen last week and she passed away as well 😢 It’s heartbreaking to experience

Will do, thanks! I’m giving it soaked in mealworms as I saw someone else suggest that and it’s a lifesaver!

Update: she laid an egg!! 🙏👏

W.O.W. I actually had a feeling that if I went today this could happen 😱 Thank you!

Yep, we started with administering calcium gluc yesterday evening. One of the symptoms of AI is egg laying issues and misshapen/malformed eggs.

Some of you may have read my recent post- we lost one of our khaki hens last week. She was egg bound, stopped eating, didn’t want to move around, tail bobbing. We did all the things were supposed to do (isolated her, warm soaks, calcium gluc, etc). She died after taking her to the vet and having...

Thank you…😢

Thank you…she was loved and will be missed, that’s for sure!

Update…our girl “Baby” didn’t make it 😢 we are heartbroken. Took her to the vet today and had what seemed to be a successful outcome. The vet sedated her to help her relax while she digitally removed a soft shell egg inside of her. She got the whole thing removed and sent us home with...

Thanks for the support and for checking in…she’s about the same. I’ve given her 3 doses of the Calcium Gluconate so far and a couple of soaks which she resists so much. Just continuing to let her rest alone as much as possible even though I want to comfort her!

Thank you, I hope so too! Oh wow- I didn’t realize I could give her more than one dose in a day! What dosage did you give? And have you ever tried nutri-drench?

Update: she made it through the night. She basically stood in the same spot in her makeshift crate all night. She laid down for a bit but mostly stood up all night. She pooped a lot yesterday evening but I don’t see much at all on her bedding today. She is refusing to drink now. I got her to...

Thanks 🙏 Gave her the calcium gluconate and another warm soak. Hoping she’s better tomorrow!

Ok thank you!

Yesterday my 1 year old khaki Campbell was not wanting to eat much and then I discovered she was egg bound. I gave her an epsom salt soak and within 30 min she laid one regular egg and one egg yolk only, and then had a soft shell hanging out of her. I gently tried to pull the soft shell out and...
