I have a 20 year old Cockatoo who has laid two eggs in the past about 14 years ago.
About 1 week ago I was cleaning her cage and noticed blood droppings (coming from her vent) on the bottom of the cage on the papers.
WE took her to the vet ,left a fecal sample,which is currently being tested,and the vet told us,after an exam of Ziggy, that she possible has an egg which ishe has been trying to pass. WE brought her home ,the blood dropping stopped and we noticed last night a bright red protrusion from her anal area,and some white mucus AND what appeared to be an egg. She ekpt straining but the egg didn't come through. This morning,there was no egg, and her anal area had receeded and looked like the normal gray skin.
ANy thoughts as to what we can do to help her pass this egg? ANy help would certainly be appreciated. BTW, we don't have a male. She seems to be acting normal but her "poop" has decreased in frequency and volume.
Thanks so much!
