Hello!
I'm looking for opinions and experiences in the abnormal eggs field.
My girl has been laying abnormal eggs for a few months now. She has laid everything from normal, to weird shape to shell less and even a lashed egg.
She was laying very thin eggs and then one day an egg broke inside her so I rushed to the vet, he cleaned her and gave her antibiotics. Then she went broody and after a week or so, she laid a lashed egg so I gave her antibiotics again. Then she received a vitamins treatment (Tabernil total which has vitamin a, b, c, d, k, etc) and calcium supplement (125g per day). She was blood tested and xray, there was no obstruction nor anything visible but the liver is a bit swollen and her red cells are low, so we started a treatment with iron and a liver protector (proteliv). She was also tested for calcium and she has a good amount (16).
The shell less eggs are her way to go now. After the calcium and vitamin treatment she laid a fart egg, then no eggs for three days and now we have three consecutive days of shell less eggs "laid" at night.
Other general data:
Temperature: Max. 33°C / 91.4°F Min 26°C / 78.8°F
Humidity: Between 70% and 90%
The coop/run is under a tree and a climbing plant. The roof is not too hight. 1.2m only.
There is access to a little "pool" which she is addicted to. Sometimes I use the mister system they have, but is raining too much lately so I can't use it as often as I would like.
She lives with a rooster. And in April I got a new girl (eggs problems were already a thing)
Technically speaking I've been dealing with three vets. One says that there's nothing left to be done. Another says that maybe we are dealing with egg drop syndrome and the way to go is surgery and a third one mentioned hormonal implants and I have no idea what to think anymore.
All comments are really welcome! <3
PD: Her last normal egg was in April 12th.
