Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

A lovely walk will be good for him and you, I will check in later. I need to head to town now.

Back. This is weighing on my mind so much
I wish to God @BY Bob was here we hardly catch each other online at the same time anymore

It's very meaty looking.

I have written to @BY Bob he's around

If this is meat these two have collected I swear I will go mad

So I would say it’s a lash egg. Which may or may not indicate any infection.

This is what I found

So sounds like it can happen and is likely not a cause for alarm.

It's raining again

Well they both look awesome! I would just keep an eye on them and go about things as normal.

(And thanks for putting another song in my head…. It’s raining again… when will it ever end… dee dum dee dum diddle de dum..)

It's just like the hot dog sausage in colour
I can't thank you enough. Tina and princess have become real friends and I don't want them leaving me yet.

First thing is to be sure that is what it is. Cut it open and show us the inside. Lash eggs are rubbery to touch and typically have lots of different layers of stuff inside.
Then how sure are you it is Tina? It has nothing to do with a regular egg ( though it may have some egg stuff inside) so Princess not laying may mean it is her. If Tina lays a normal egg today or tomorrow, then it is not her.
@BY Bob is more expert than me on antibiotics so can weigh in on the amoxicillin.

This is good advice here. RC is an expert on lash eggs. If she says it is, I accept that judgement. Do you have the dosing the last time I helped you with the amoxicillin? It would be the same now as well.

Yes , she's had 125mg and this will be 3 times a day, to be safe.

@Ponypoor found this.
