Thread: Egg bound

  1. #1

    Egg bound

    Hi Guys


    i have one of my Chagoi’s has a really large belly recently

    I’m thinking it’s egg bound, she doesn’t appear to be in any discomfort and is feeding

    the only affect is she’s off balance and slightly floating to one side

    I have seen videos of people almost massaging eggs out under sedation

    I’m really dubious to do this, what does others think

    I have also tried shelled peas


    thanks

    Hand spawning is unlikely to yield anything unless the eggs are ready to come out.... and if they are ready then the males will see to that.

    She won't release the eggs if temps are cold either, hand spawning or otherwise.

    Have a read of this:
