How Quickly Does Albendazole Work?

[Jonny]

Quick help needed!

 

One of our chucks has looked under the weather this afternoon. Just gave her a once over and a softish egg shell is hanging out of her vent.

 

Do I gently pull it out? Leave her to pass it on her own? Take her to the vets?

 

Thanks in advance.

I would gently pull it out as her companions will peck at it.

[Jonny]

Ta. You're a legend.

 

Is it dangerous for her if the egg has broken inside?

[Jonny]

Pulled it out but it was quite stuck.

 

Charlie took a couple of minutes now seems back to her usual self.

 

Incidently my wife had a ceasarian section last week and I watched most of it. Pulling the egg out of the vent and all that entailed was far worse than anything I saw then!

Congratulations on your baby . Boy or girl? Congratulations at assisting at the birth of the egg too .

[Egluntyne]

Well done. You've honed your midwifery skills this weekend.

 

Congratulations on the birth of your child. I hope your OH is recovering well.

Thanks! We had a baby girl called Emma.

 

I won't list all the problems we've had but safe to say her arrival was a great relief!

Double congratulations then - it's relief enough when it's all gone well! You'll have your hands full now!!!
