hen pooping egg yolk

[Ry123]

I have to go to school now can I give her oyster shells and egg shells temporarily

 

[Ry123]

Do you think she will be okay?

 

[Aunt Angus]

Do you think she will be okay?

I hope so. It really depends if she can expel the egg material.

And is that her green poop in the picture? Is she eating? Their poop often looks like that when they aren't eating much.

She has been having a full crop at night and flat in the mornings so I believe she has been eating. Does she have to expell the shell too? Or will it not have a shell.

It may be a shell-less egg if you didn't find any broken bits, but shell-less usually means a soft shell. She will need to expel a soft shell, which is hard for them to do. The calcium helps with that. Be sure to get some as soon as you can.

And does she need to expel the egg by today or will it take time.

 

[Aunt Angus]

And good to know about her crop and poop. That's a great sign!

 

[Aunt Angus]

The sooner, the better.

 

[Aunt Angus]

She may just have the egg membrane, too. Either way, it will need to come out.

Okay, thank you so much! Do I have to force feed the calcium or can she do that on her own idk how much she will need before I left I left some egg shells and oyster and she began eating it right away
