JenniO Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Just had a near heart attack in an Uber rushing my Timneh to the vet. He was grunting in pain and bleeding from the butt. Off course 'He" laid an egg in the carrier on the way to the vet. After about 20 years we find out He is a She!!!. Didn't think that was possible. Is there anything i need to do for care post egg laying? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greytness Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 The only thing I'm aware of is the need to bump up her calcium intake. If the egg was taken away from her, she could double clutch. Many swap out a dummy egg for the one laid. They'll nest on it for awhile before losing interest. It also helps to reduce the double clutching. Did she actually see the vet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenniO Posted November 24, 2020 Author Share Posted November 24, 2020 thanks for the response. Yes the vet looked her over and said she was fine. i think it was just a visual exam, she said usually there is only one egg. They didnt charge me. I have 2 silver balls [that have muffled bells inside of them] that he played with all the time. a month ago he started a super clingy behavior, wanting to be perched on me all the time. Got him/her [im confused now ] a plush snuggle hut and she started staying in the hut 24/7 with the silver ball. Would the balls do for a dummy egg? I'll get some calcium and liquid vitamins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
