My lovely 18 month old RIR, Philly, stopped laying a few weeks ago when she started a moderate molt. Yesterday, she made some not good noises, and when I went out to check on her, she had laid what looks like a lash egg. It looked like cooked flesh, was not symmetrical (kind of kidney-shaped) and had a tube-like piece attached. The whole thing was about the size of a regular egg. It was reddish brown on one half and cream colored on the other. When I poked it, yolk came out.
As for other symptoms, here is what is confusing. She has a perfect comb, bright eyes, no yolk on the vent, the vent looks normal and her tail is upright. She is behaving normally, including eating and drinking. She does have a squishy abdomen, which is what concerns me. Does this sound like EYP?
