How is she acting? They can retain the eggs for longer than you would think if they feel something is wrong. If she is egg bound, she will be lethargic and not eating. If that is the case and you don't have a vet to take her to that you can afford, warm water baths and gentle massage of the belly and vent area can help pass a hard egg. Sometimes, it's just one that's a slug but it stops the others from coming.

Yea they want 700$ said all they could do is surgery and not eating or moving around if she does its very little I will try the bathing more and messaging I have bathe her but no luck but I will deff keep trying

At this point, that's really your only option. Sounds like she's definitely egg bound though if she's not moving much. I would do it several times a day to ensure she stays hydrated and hope for the best. The only other thing I can think of is if there is a way to lubricate her but that would take either knowledge of her anatomy or a vet willing to essentially do an enema into her oviducts. Either way, good luck with her.

Thank you just to update she has eatin today and moving around more that I have been bathing her she actually looks good just hasn't laid he eggs maybe her eating will help

If she's eating and moving around, that's a good thing. Her moving will also help move the eggs. Thanks for the update and I'm glad to hear she seems to be perking up. :)

Just stick with it.
Def dont give up on her :D
