Hi everyone!
I am hoping someone can help...I have a hen that appears to be egg bound but feel no egg..
She is eating and drinking ok, but she is still sitting with tail down n puffed up
I gave her a warm bath last night, still felt nothing.
She is pooping ok n it looks fine.
I have given her calcium
She is panting and pulsing as if egg bound ...what do I do?
Her eyes are bright.
I dont want to lose this hen, as I have lost 2 over this last 7 or 8 months.
They get quality food and have calicum available at all times
🥺🥺🥺
 
Yes
I just went down and put vasoline on her vent and went in about 2" ..no egg
 
She doesnt want to stand up when you are doing things for her and she puts her left wing out like to balance her
We had a dog grab her about a week n a half ago...she seemed just fine until yesterday n the night before...she is panting but I dont know if its stress from being inside or? Like I said she is eating n drinking, I put electrolytes in her water, but she is drinking ok ...Im lost ...maybe dog injured insides? No visible damage on her outside
 
With my egg bound hen the vet said we should put about one or two mls of oil up her butt. But I would think is she’s pooping she would not be egg bound. But I’m not an expert. Would it be possible to go to a vet or call one for advice? Good luck.
