Fingers crossed for Astoria!

Not who I was expecting this from. Bellatrix just randomly dropped a slug while cruising her enclosure.
No change from Astoria and I just had her soaking for a few. I’m getting nervous and feeling a bit in foreign territory with this situation.

She looks like she’s saying “ I did this mom!”

I decided to take a closer look after work and found two more slugs from Bellatrix. It’s looking like she may repeat last year and slug out 
Still no progress from Astoria but she did have a pretty big poo. Maybe that will help things move along. She’s due for another round of injections in a couple hours

If they are anything at all like mammals, those are the same and nearby muscles, so hopefully that means those muscles are working to do their job with the eggs too!

A little bit of progress! The lowest most egg has moved its way down and is now only about an inch from her cloaca. She had her second calcium injection and I’ll do one more soak before bed. Hopefully she will make more progress in the quiet of the night.

Well no changes overnight so we are back at the vet. Going to try an enema to see if we can loosen some things up. Crossing all my fingers and toes.
Bellatrix has also laid another 4 slugs today. Ah you win some you lose some. At least she hasn’t gotten egg bound too so I will count my blessings there.

Got some compacted feces out, but no progress on eggs . She does feel weirdly puffy and thick so as a precaution and last ditch effort we’ve started her on antibiotics and an anti inflammatory. If she still hasn’t had any change by Monday then she will go into surgery. Oh man, I really am rooting for her body to take care of itself.

Hoping for the best outcome.

Holy smokes Erin! Draaken and I are really hoping it doesn’t come down to surgery! She just doesn’t wanna give up those egg does she? Poor little baby girl! I will add her to my prayer list for sure!
