Thank you , i just took her to vet, while we were there she passed a strange thing,the vet said it was probably an egg. They took x rays and there is a large egg close to being laid. I just hope it comes out,her eggs are really large. I can not afford any more vet bills,i just wish i knew more.Thank you again.
