I'm sorry everyone; it's bad news about Patricia. It was a prolapse, as I suspected ~ but the biggest, nastiest one the vet had ever seen. She actually took Patricia to the head vet for a specialist consultation. They found a massive blood clot hidden behind the prolapse, lots of exposed blood vessels & she was haemorrhaging. 😢 It was really nasty & she was starting to fade so we agreed to put her out of her misery. Not what I was hoping for.
I thought she'd finished laying. I hadn't had an egg from her in months & then she began her moult & I just didn't expect her to ever lay again. However she was in a nesting box earlier this week & it seems that probably did it. She tried to push out a really large egg. :( The egg never arrived but everything else came out.

Those of you who know my tribes know we are heavy on the flighty nut jobs. The sane, stable members are super valuable for keeping my tipsy ship steady. Patricia was one of my calm steady ones. She will be missed.

She's buried next to Reagan within sight & sound of the tribes.
I had a lot of unwanted help & advice. 🙄
