    Re: Help, egg still attached to female...

    Sorry for the delay in updating you all.

    Unfortunately I didn't see Corey's response until this morning. The good news is I was told by my vet to leave her until later on in the week before bringing her in to surgically remove the eggs so nothing has been done.
    On Sunday I removed the egg that was attached much in the way corey described but rather than cutting the membrane I used damp cotton buds to carefully peel it off the egg. I then pushed the ovaduct back inside the female. Nothing happened on Monday but this morning she had managed to pass one of the eggs which was right next to her vent. The other 2 eggs are quite a way up from her vent and so I have just tried massaging them down. Unfortunately I could only get them to move 1/2" or so no matter how long I kept going. So it looks like I'm going to have to drain the eggs. I haven't decided whether I'm going to go for it myself or take her to the vet to do. Too late now to do either today so will get it sorted tomorrow.

    A big thank you to Corey for his advice!
