SOMEONE HELP!!!!

[Engo]

For the future, I would recommend begining with treating the issue like she was egg bound. if I understand the issue correctly, she had an egg that wouldn't come out or was stuck that you could see?

How old is she and how long has she been laying?
She looks content in the cage. Hoping for the best outcome for her!

she's about 20 weeks old, this was her first egg! she's outside with the others now, getting her feathers dry and fluffing back up. i'm still very worried about her but hoping for the best. i'll bring her back in around 4:00 for the night and another vent check!

Is she pooping better? I would make sure that she is taking some calcium or crushed oyster shell. And, I don’t think that it would hurt her to check with a finger for eggbinding if she is not pooping or seems to be egg bound.
