Hi. I have a chicken that was egg bound and we only noticed as she was behaving like she’s laying and making all the right noises but no egg would come out. So we took her to the vet and he removed it with his fingers through her vent. Anyway, she seems worse since having it out. Really lethargic and pale yesterday, didn’t really eat or move but seems slightly better. She seems somewhat better, the colour in her face comes and goes (usually goes when she sits for long), still lethargic most of the day. I’ve read that it can take days/weeks to recover but I’m also worried she might need antibiotics for an infection. It seems a good sign that she’s better than yesterday but not great that she’s still off and not eating much. Any advice? Do we need to take her back to the vet for antibiotics?
