I felt about the length of my pinky finger.
I used coconut oil as a lubricant.
She is not standing like a penguin, and she does not seem to be straining to poop, she had not played ant eggs for some time.
I tried to drain her and I did not get much out, but when I stopped she released a poop...
I have isolated her and am monitoring her. I don't think that there is an egg in her abdomen, all I felt was a hard, kinda like a sausage to the right os her vent. A little blood came out when I removed my finger.
I gave her a bath to wash the poop off her bottom. She will not let me touch her abdomen for very long, so i don't know about an egg but it feels very hard. Her vent is very small, but see is still laying. She has been pooping but very small amounts, they are mostly liquid. She ate and drank...
Help please!
I have a hen that had sticky bottom that I had not noticed. She probably had it for at least 2 days. I unclogged her and kept an eye on her, she is not pooping and is eating very little. I grabbed her and felt her abdomen it felt very full. I am afraid that there might be an egg...
