Egg bound

[Oh cluck]

I would do this. grease up with olive oil on a glove, and feel gently for a hard egg. Be very careful not to break it. if you feel one, give her a warm soak in epsom salts a few times a day untill she lays it. I would keep her inside.so you know if SHE lays an egg

Thank you. She has been inside for over a week. She has deluxe accommodations in a large dog kennel filled with thick pillows that are covered in garbage bags, then topped with paper towels for easy clean up. I leave the kennel open at all times so she has free range of the house. Her food, sprinkled with Tums, and water are right outside it. She likes to sunbathe after her Epsom salt soak, which I am doing twice a day. I'm going to ask my 'chicken lady' at the farm store today, where I purchase my pullets, for help.

Did you try to feel the egg? are there any egg contens coming out? how old is the bird?
