HELP! Chicken with broken egg in her

If you suspect a broken egg, your hen shoulf have a round of an antibiotic to head off yolk bacterial infection.

To clear out the remains, give a calcium tablet directly into the beak to help with contractions.

Soaking may cause extra stress, and I don't recommend it unless you need to clean a big mess off the butt fluff.

What type of antibiotic would you recommend?
 
How is she? Was there a broken egg, did the shell come out in pieces or intact?
Is she able to poop?

An antibiotic that can be used for broken egg inside the oviduct would be Amoxicillin (Fish Mox). Dose is 57mg per pound of weight given twice a day for 7-10 days.
