Not again 😣

She just lifted her butt really really high, and strained hard and shot out a poop.
That was very odd. Could the egg have been blocking it?

Was it like a broody poop?can you usually feel and egg if it's close to coming out?

I can't feel anything
It wasn't like a broody poop, it was just a normal sized one. She was in the water, lowered her head and crop, lifted her butt up, a lot, strained very hard and pooped.
She went right back to looking in pain after.

It had been a while so I gave her a little bit of calcium, she was a pickle. Bit me, clamped onto my skin and tugged. Then almost hissed and fought me some more... she was extremely upset.
Afterwards she returned to being a little angel, and has cheered up considerably.

She clearly feels unwell. Then she acts like everything's fine and has me questioning my sanity. I feel like she's gaslighting me at this point lol
Shes now laughing at me after escaping the bath and soaking me!
She seems back to herself so Im not worried anymore. But I don't get it. I really don't

Maybe you are over reacting since she has been through so much. it's easy to do I've been there.

Perhaps, I don't want to take any chances with her
But she was definitely breathing hard and she had her tail down

She seems to get this occasionally, it's weird.... Dougie is my healthy comparison, and she's never done that

 

[Miss Lydia]

Sounds like she may getting ready to lay.

@BelovedBirds how is Sprightly today?

She's in a good mood today
Her egg last night was relatively normal, very minimal calcium deposits.

She's been foraging all day, very happily. I just went out to check on her, she had oats all over her face from messy eating. I have no idea, I didn't ask.
She was happy, wagged her tail, did that big smile, came over to me, and let me give her a cuddle. It's almost 8pm and usually if she has issues it's before now, so I'm fairly sure she'll be okay tonight.

No pictures of her oat face??

Unfortunately not... but you can have an old picture of her mud face!

She was very happy about it.
Imagine this, but with oats stuck to her face instead of mud.
