It was probably the membrane from what she passed before, it's good that she was able to expel it. When there is not a full, hard egg to push on, the muscles don't have anything to push against, it makes it hard for them to pass those, and can make them feel pretty bad. If she stays perky then you might hold off on the antibiotic, but maybe have on hand just in case. If she seems off or sick, then consider starting that. I would give her calcium for a couple more days, see if you get a normal egg. Hopefully just a glitch, time will tell.
Yeah, I'm going to order some tonight. Even if I don't use it, it can't be bad to have on hand. I'll keep giving a TUM a day. Hopefully she makes more progress in the right direction tomorrow, fingers crossed!
I skimmed and noticed your mention of scratch. Becareful with daily treats.
I highly recommend you stop giving scratch as it takes away form them getting a balanced diet which causes probelms and it is one thing you have complete control over/are able to prevent.
Yeah, I'm not sure if scratch or treats are to blame, but I'm definitely going to tone down the scratch from now on, just to be safe.
