tidygirlsuk Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I'm not really sure. But my pekins take ages, but i've never timed them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Is she getting broody? That's how my buff started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Unfortunately it looks like a prolapse not an egg - see post in the egg section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 My pekins can take a while but then that may be because they have tiny bums and lay quite good size eggs. hope everything is okay x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Oh that's so sad - do you know what caused the problem? Sending hugs to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chick wiggle Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Thanks Koojie, it was a prolapse, huge as well and beyond repair really. They dont know what caused it though, apparently its just one of those things and quite rare in a pure breed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 So very sorry to read your sad news. Allisonx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 So sorry about that - it seems I was quite lucky with regard to my broody. Next time something happens like that with the girls I shall be looking up their bums to check instead of dismissing it as broodiness. A timely warning to us all not to get complacent.
