I have a chicken with her tail down. I have had her soak twice in warm water with epsom. I have given her apple cider and pet RV. I tried to massage and feel to see if I felt an egg but I do not. Any other suggestions or things to try would be greatly appreciated

How is she doing?

Is she pooping? Do you have photos of her and her poop?

If you think she may be struggling with expelling an egg or egg material, get Calcium into her asap. You can find Calcium Citrate+D3 at stores like Walmart, CVS, etc. Give one tablet now, then once daily for 7 days.

Work on hydration. You can give electrolytes or sugar water. I would omit the vinegar at this time.

I assume pet RV is VetRx? While VetRx probably won't hurt, it more of a product like VaporRub to help temporarily alleviate respiratory symptoms.
