EMERGENCY PLEASE HELP ASAP

[Themellowyellows]

Now thinking about it, she just yawned in my face and her breath smelled weird. I wasn't expecting it to smell minty but it smelled different then how it usually smells I guess. Maybe she has sour crop?

I am sorry about your little hen Beaky.

She is perching so it does help drop out whatever residual left inside.. gravity doing the work.

I had a hen like that and what I did was gently held her vertically between my lower legs while gently massage her tummy, the membrane/york did came out. It works sometimes,but not every time. She did went on living for another year....and was euthanized not for reproductive issue. She was an Isa Brown.

Like Debbies292d advised..calcium D+.

I wish all will be well with your hen Beaky.

You could try probiotics but doubting that's going to help her egg issue.

Here are two crop articles if you'd want to read up on those. Crop issues usually come from something else, so it fits she could be coming up with that now.

I have a similar problem with one of my ducks right now and this morning I started her on Baytril antibiotic because at this point, I suspect an oviduct infection

 

[Debbie292d]

Yes it says it has D3 in it. She also has vitamins in her water and electrolytes. I see her pushing but nothing comes out.

Calcium Citrate with D3 should be taking care of this and it's trying as you say she's pushing. Can you get her into a warm Epsom salt bath again? Between the two of those, she should expel it.

I am squeamish to suggest antibiotics to them but maybe that's the best idea.

Im sorry to hear that, its so hard when our pets are sick. I pray she gets better asap!

Yeah, I was giving her calcium for a week and then stopped and then gave it to her again brought her in for bath and warm soaks, but she still goes off in a corner and pumps. Her tail for a while and her egg that comes out is just a white skin with a tail and then a liquid liquid yoke clear mixed together. I have had another duck well actually twice in the last 12 years duck that died from this problem.
