I don't know what to do- I've never personally dealt with this.

Egg bound hen, did they egg break? She's not doing well, i don't think I've got another day with her.
Can she be saved? .
People say vet attention may be necessary, i don't have that option here.

I do have her in warm water and Epsom salt.

Somewhere put away maybe, but I'm not entirely sure.

If you can find them, & give her one it'll help her pass the egg.

In the meantime, try to boost her energy, with some warm sugar water.

Unfortunately she passed maybe 10 minutes after I replied. .
I had a feeling it would happen, she wasn't looking good at all.

Can't save them all unfortunately.

She could have ruptured internally. A necropsy would reveal exactly what happened.

I am so sorry for your loss. She's in a better place though. R.I.P miss white hen❤
