I saw this hanging out of my chickens vent! I made another thread that described the symptoms she had earlier. Is there a egg stuck inside her? There is also a egg yolk in the nest box area!

I’ll try giving her some boiled egg as calcium for now, I don’t have any antibiotics so I’ll have to make do with the stuff I have.
 
I had this happen to one of my chickens and they were fine afterward but if you start to notice any other symptoms take her to the vet and if the eggshell is still in her vent you should go immediately because she won't be able to get her other egg out tomorrow and that could cause serious problems.
 
I don’t have a vet around here so I will need to do this myself. This happened before and my hen was able to get the egg out so I’m hoping it would all be ok...
:fl

Egg isn't the best calcium supplement. Try a tums or calcium citrate with Vit-D3.

What is her normal diet?
