Egg Bound Pullet

[Bluebee]

Give her a warm bath for about 20-25 minutes, or until she has passed the egg. Make sure the water is warmer than her body temperature. If she does not pass the egg in 20-25 minutes, just keep adding warm water until she does. After she has passed it, keep her inside and keep her warm and dry. Make it dark for her. Make sure she has food (with lots of calcium) and fresh water. When she seems like she is acting normal again, you can re-introduce her back into the flock. Hope this works and good luck!

This was definitely not your typical egg bound pullet. Something was wrong with her from the day I got her as a chick.

Due to her labored breathing and apparant pain, slowly getting worse, the best thing for her was to take her out of her misery.

Im really sorry for you after reading this I realize that was what was wrong with 2 of my pullets that died in the last few days, I thought they were to young for eggs, but the same symptoms. I hope you don't have to go through that again.
Very sorry for you

I think she may have internally laid an egg. I think she was deformed from when she was a chick; she grew slower and was smaller than everyone until she matured.
