Among the hens we rescue from egg production, we often see the pain caused by a life spent <\/span>laying far more eggs than they would naturally<\/span><\/a>, which can take a debilitating toll on their bodies. Even these three birds, who did not come from a large-scale egg farm, suffered the effects of their breeding.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the birds\u2019 initial 30-day quarantine period at the sanctuary, our watchful caregivers noticed that Stubtail wasn\u2019t eating as well as Bethannie and Golden. Radiographs completed by our avian veterinarian revealed a large, concerning abdominal mass. Thankfully, a more detailed CT scan showed that this mass was not cancerous but was caused by inflammation from egg yolks in her uterus.<\/span><\/p>\n

Treatment has helped shrink the mass and make Stubtail feel more comfortable. We\u2019re thrilled to see that she\u2019s regained a healthy appetite and will closely monitor her in case she needs surgery in the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While surgery is not without risks for these hens, for Bethannie, urgency left us with no choice. When she, too, experienced a dip in appetite, we brought her for scans that revealed large egg masses in her uterus. Dr. Molnar performed surgery the following day, and after a speedy recovery, we were excited to reunite her with her two dear friends at the sanctuary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe three birds had much to say to each other, and they were so excited to go outside for the first time,\u201d <\/span>says Brooke Marshall<\/strong>. \u201cThey love taking dirt baths together\u2026and they\u2019ve even identified the perfect dirt bath hole, where they all get in together for a cuddle puddle.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
