Update: she’s separated in a cage while we work with her and while we were gone, she laid and ate her own egg again! This is after the soap filled one. My question is, how long should I keep trying these soap filled eggs? A few days or a week…is there a recommended timeframe? Can anyone share...
Update: she went for the soap filled egg and almost ate all of it! She kept shaking her head but kept going back eating away at the shell. I don’t know if this bird can be broken.
Question : will her egg be consumable tomorrow after ingesting dish soap and should I try another one? I’m at such...
Thank you! I will go straight for the dish liquid. She came from a flock that was taken by a hawk. I hate to kill her since she’s a survivor. She came with the bad habit already. I just hope the dish soap doesn’t poison her.
Should I cull my hen who is eating the eggs? We’ve tried everything from fake eggs to rollaway boxes. She’s actually digging the eggs out of the rollaway box to eat them and grabbing the eggs from under hens while laying! There’s nothing missing in her diet and I have grit, oyster shells...
