    Chicken laid an adnormal Egg.

    I've ordered calcuim, and got some aqua mox recommended from someone on here and I'm waiting for some dewormer. All should take a day or two to arrive. But I'm really worried about my chicken. Updated my other post on disease/illness but thought maybe I can see what you guys think about her...

    We Thought She Was Egg Bound... It's Pyometra!

    I just wanted to relay the story of the past week with my chicken since I couldn't find much info on it while it was happening. It is about Chooch, my 2 and a half year old silkie. She is very small, only about 2.4 lbs. She was egg bound once before when laying her first egg, but had never been...
