Hi I'm Rob.. been reading your post because my hen "aka Ester bunny" has fowl pox dry version and I do believe it's making her egg bound.. she did lay a soft shell about 5 days ago and don't think any since then. It's getting about 50° or less at night and she likes to sleep on top of the coop.. should I bring her in the house for a couple nights? And can I put some kind of lube to help her?

Ok I just tried and I really can't tell, a little white came out

I made her drink but I don't have any calcium

Hi I have a hen that has fowl pox dry, and it's making her egg bound. It gets cold out and she sleeps out on top of the coop. Should I bring her inside for a couple nights? And is there anything I can put on her cloaca to help the egg pass?

My hen is egg bound also.. is there any thing I can put on her cloaca to help the egg pass?

You can crush up tums or rolaids

Well she made it through the night but now she's having upper respitory issues. I went and got some antibiotics, we'll see!

I lost her last night.

So sorry! Will you be having a necropsy done?
