What to do??!!!

I just get a glob out and let her eat what she will the first time, while a glob in the refrigerator hardening for her to peck at when she feels the need to. I am not sure on the molasses to be truthful, as I always use the coconut oil, twice a day, hasn't usually needed more than 2 days when i've used it on rooster, and I know he wasn't egg bound lol or I would be rich

Thank you tons gonna go give it a try
 
You can test to see if she's egg bound by thoroughly washing your hands and then coating your forefinger in coconut oil and then your hens vent and inserting your finger into her vent up to the second knuckle. If she is egg bound you will be able to feel the egg with your finger. Hopefully if she is egg bound just the examination with the oil will help her pass the egg.
If you cannot feel an egg (it's quite obvious if it's there) then you will need to consider other possibilities.

I would blow dry her, and keep an eye on things for a day or so, make sure she's eating drinking pooping before allowing back outside , though she should be OK out there, you want to know things are going better before placing her outside where harder to monitor both intake and output

She looks like she's enjoying the soak though, which will help her feel a little better
