Help, egg still attached to female...

[Christine]

Hi, I worked as a vet tech for 11 yrs. We worked on everything form live stock to exotics even fish. Sometimes there is no time for anesthetic.
and sometimes the chance of it killing the animal is greater then the the pain caused by what needs to be done, and that is the reality behind the doors of a vet hospital. In an emergency situation a Dr will start working on the animal before the tech has a traich tube down its throat.

I don't know if your reply is to me,
But I wasn't talking about anesthetics.
But if that was my animall and this would happen at night, the next morning there would be help for her, by a vet or by an experienced person and I would never let it take this many days.

Last week I had a guttata who's eggs where stuck and that was at night, the next day I called at 08.00 in the morning and the eggs were helped out with help of a paravetinair.

I just don't think its fair to let your animall suffer for that long, thats all

No my reply wasnt to you. I was by no means saying that help should not be sought from a vet. My response was to WingedWolfPsion stating that anesthetics are not always used when dealing with emergency situations.

Hi,

Just to point out the OP had dealt with the problem long before he came back on here to post the update.

He was also recieving help from a vet via telephone and from another forum here in the UK.

He simply forgot to check back.
