Hi everyone..

Cola laid 6 eggs after being induced on Thursday but she has still been acting gravid? I know it takes time for their hormones to calm down but today she spent all day digging the deepest hole ever bless her.. I was going to get some chickens eggs and pop them in to fool her :lol: :lol:

Any idea's how long it will take for her to realise she has an empty belly now?

Thanks

Jeanette x

i dont think there is a time limit but digging the hole may have helped.this is the worse part of having them induced.i dont think it will be more than a few days.

Cola has seemed to slow down abit thank goodness and she has eaten well. I think as you said terry digging the hole did help..

I did feel sorry for her as I left for work yesterday and her bum was balancing over this huge hole.. love her heart..

Thanks all

Jeanette xx

Bless her, I wonder if its a bit like us? In the sense that when we have a baby born by c-section (as I did) you almost feel cheated and wonder if you've missed out by not going through the normal procedure of giving birth? I wonder if, for her own satisfaction she needed to dig a hole and just complete the natural process?

(BTW in case you are wondering I DIDN'T did a hole after having George!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: )
