I have a female ibera who I have been suspecting was egg bound due to the cold wet weather and the fact that she will always want to lay her eggs outside.
tonight I took her to the vet for an X-ray and she was found to have no less than 11 eggs in her. He gave her an oxytocin injection but so far no signs of any egg laying. He did say it could take more than one shot and if that failed surgery might be necessary.
I would love to hear from anyone who has had experience of this. I’m really worried about her. She seems very weak. She tries to eat but gives up very quickly.
