Thanks for the advice!! This is my first experience with egg binding, so I am a newb in this department. I gave her two nest boxes this year, normally I only do one. And I left the water dish in as well, I don't agree with those who say remove it. She did the 'egg dance' (our reference to the activity prior to laying haha) about 5 days after prelay shed. I also kept her tank a little warmer...would this contribute to the egg binding? And what else can I do to prevent it? I fee really bad that she is in this position, and never want it to repeat if I can prevent it.
Thanks!
