Okay, I will definitely try that.

Did that work effectively for you?

Also, When I feel for the egg it it doesn't seem like its ready to come out. Its kind up further, under her bone.

Could she still be egg bound?

Yes that treatment worked for me. It's probably stuck up there. The warm water will help her relax and hopefully let the egg pass.

Wellll, Now I took her out of her cage and put her on the floor, she's limping.

the pad on the bottom of her foot looks swelled.

could I have mistaken that for egg bound, since she's laying around all the time and stuff?

Or could being egg bound affect her and make her limp on one leg?

If her pad is swollen she has a bacterial infection in her foot as well known as bumble foot. You can soak the foot in warm salt water. What you can really do if she is egg bound and her foot is swollen is let her soak in warm salt water from butt to foot. That way she gets some comfort.
