Anyone have issues with egg blockage in their chickens? We found one or our turkins tonight with its feather drooping and she doesn't want to move, just stands there. We picked her up and it feels like there is an egg ready to come out. Any ideas how we can get her out of misery??

    Pop her in a warm bath and then put vaseline on her vent is the recommended action for an egg bound hen. It helps to vent loosen & soften.

    Hope this help x
