she's obviously got an egg and honestly it looks more like two eggs but she's not laying. her butt is dragging so low it nearly touches the ground and she's so wide her legs touch the swell of her posterior. she's eating, pooping and appears to be fine otherwise but it's obvious she's full of egg. i'm worried because i know this is abnormal and what if the egg breaks. it has been days now. i could tell on monday she was developing an egg and by tuesday i was surprised she hadn't laid..now it almost looks like two eggs.

help i don't know what to do or if i should do anything?
 
since i posted this i read a little about being egg bound...maybe that's what's going on but she isn't displaying any symptoms of anything irregular. honestly, if you couldn't see her little, well big, butt dragging around you would have no idea anything was up. it's weird...it's like the egg or eggs are in a pounch hanging off her rear end. it freely sways when she waddles around and doesn't appear to cause discomfort.

she's pretty easily spooked and i can't imagine having to handle her. I fear just capturing her would result in breaking the eggs which could lead to who knows what.

geez, i wish i knew what to do.
