Has anymore discussion been made on this condition since 2010?
I too have a Ameraucana hen, 3 yrs, that has these symptoms. I'm hesitant about removing the fluid at this time because I have read other discussion on other links outside of this site that caution that removal of too much fluid at one time could result into your girl going into shock.
I initially treated her with warm baths as if she were egg bound, but I don't believe that is her case. She has not even laid an egg in almost 4 months. Prior to those 4 months she had gone almost 9 to 10 months without laying with just a short stint of laying between those periods. But during that short stint her eggs were good, hard shells.
