Is her back naked? Is she trying to lay an egg? What's your outdoor temperature? What's her diet?

Hi

Hi yes my male got to her to much and then read about the back saddle I have only just took it of when I bought her in. It's 26c today and her diat is very good pellet. Fresh greens every day. High energy food

You sound like you are in the UK. How has the weather been, is it real hot?

Was the bath you gave her warm or cool?

Have you tried giving her sugar water or electrolytes, Pedialyte, GatorAde or anything like that?

Because she is panting I suspect she may be overheated, esp bc you say she has been wearing an apron. Try giving her a cooling bath, no Epsom salts, not ice cold. Cool her belly and breast and under her wings.

Oh, cool the bare area on her back as well. Do not let her get chilled.

Be careful not to get water in her nostrils.
