You can give her the one quarter cup molasses flush. It shouldn't hurt anything. It's a small amount and she may be happy to drink it all. If she doesn't you'll need to syringe the rest into her.

Agree with this, I have a hen with a reproductive disorder, she gets eggs stuck, I've used the calcium citrate therapy, plus Epsom salt bath (not every case) and also gave aquamox on one occasion. She had labored breathing, I really thought she was going to dieMucous is slimy. Often white.
The fact that the poop smells much worse than normal poop also is an indication of obstruction.
You are doing everything for Eddie that I would do. What is the strength og the calcium? Should be around 600mg. You can give her a second one this evening if she's still in the same predicament. Push fluids. Keeping her nice and hydrated is important.
It was mentioned earlier in the thread that she laid one a month ago. (I'm not the OP, just reading the thread.)When did your 9 year old Eddie last lay an egg?
