Is this a lash egg? If so, what do I do?

What about the red stringy bit at the bottom? And if the brownish bottom part is salpingitis, does that not need antibiotics to clear up? Or would it clear and its own? And she'll be fine?

I don't know what the red stringy bit is; it looks like a blood vessel more than intestinal shed, but maybe one of the vets who inhabit BYC could identify it properly.

Salpingitis is the name of the condition (inflammation of the oviduct), not of the material ejected. It is not certain that your hen has salpingitis. Here is more about it for you to read

Antibiotics are not sweets and should not be dished out like sweets. If you want to use them anyway, you should take whichever hen you think laid the weird egg to a vet, who can prescribe the right antibiotic, in the right quantity, for the right duration, and with the right delivery system, for the condition they diagnose, and they will if they think it appropriate.

If I had a hen that passed what your hen passed, I would treat it with enrofloxacin.

The larger section had egg material (no yolk) in it and the smaller, darker piece had a brownish, thick liquid come out, like a pudding consistency

I don't think any of that is indicative of salpingitis. I'd hold off and wait (and keep an eye on the members of the flock) and reassess if you get another questionable mass of any sort.

In the meantime I'd also throw out eggs as a precaution since you did dose the flock with antibiotics.

I do.

I do.

Disclaimer of course is none of us are vets, so we can only make our best guesses!
