Severe egg bound hen

[chickima]

She’s had a warm Epson salt bath and I wonder if I can give her a laxative — bisacodyl 5mg? I’ve massaged her belly and fed her calcium. Please advise? Thank YOU, Chickima

Hi friends! Please help, she is several days in and has not pooped or laid an egg. She has soaked in a warm Epson salt bath and I wonder if I can give her some half of the 5 mg laxative bisacodyl? Thank YOU Chickima
