I’ve got approximately a five year old red star who acted sickly on Thursday, typical of a soft egg. I waited all day and nothing. Thursday night I gently felt inside and could feel the soft shelled egg but it only would roll over in place so I left it alone and assumed it would come on out overnight. Nothing came out and when I went in Friday morning to retrieve the egg there was a hard shelled egg in the same place. I could feel both. That one didn’t come out on it’s own either. Later in the day through soaking etc she passed the hard shelled egg. However I went in to see where the soft egg was and it had slipped further back into her oviduct. I could only feel it if I pushed up on her abdomen while internally feeling. So it’s still in there and it’s not coming out. Today is her usual day off laying but I’m afraid tomorrow morning she will resume laying and either this will happen again or she’s just going to pile up eggs inside of her. Is there any way to get this soft egg out of that area?
