My heart is just sad...
Our girl is about 5-ish months old (she was a rescue so we aren't 100% sure) Vivian is a Cornish Cross that had jumped off the truck on the way to processing.
She is totally egg bound. Hubs has done all of the things with KY that are normally recommended to confirm this. He said the egg feels crushed. We've tried a warm bath, plenty of lube, assisting holding her up so she can push. She's so weak, she only stands to push. She's able to get out very little feces and now she is bleeding a little. Not a lot of blood, but it's blood nonetheless. He said the egg feels like it is very low as opposed to being right there ready to come out.
When I ran home from work to check on her at lunch, it's obvious that she is prolapsed. It was covered in feces, so I wiped her gently with a cool washcloth and she still just protrudes. She won't let me near her to help remove anything so I have to wait until hubs is with me to hold her.
She's now to the point where she will barely eat or drink. She lays for a bot, then stands and makes the saddest noises trying to push. It just exhausts her. I'm just not sure what else to do for her. Any advice?
Thanks y'all
