Ok, please don't answer with 'take her to vet'. I need an informed answer only. How long after they start dropping huge droppings and staying in the nest box ALL DAY do you have to worry about her being egg bound?

Okay, Here is goes.
If you don't have liquid calcium, there isn't much you can do.
Keep her in a warm and humid enviornment. If the egg doesn't pass in a few hours she really does need to see a vet or she will die.
Mineral oil does not work and if you try to masage the egg out you can break it which will kill your bird.

of course a vet is definitely suited yet once you cant do this then take the cage and positioned it in a showering room and steam up the room the warmth temperature in specific circumstances help. you are able to depart her in there with the cage and steam for a rapid on an analogous time as. My cockatiel additionally jumped right into a bowl of water and sat in it and that appeared to help her. i might in simple terms grant a bowl of water to yours yet dont rigidity her if she doesnt choose to flow in. once I did all this my chicken surpassed a great volume of poo and then I took her to the vet day after at present and he gave me calcium for her and supplementations for her water. Do you have a cuttlebone in there and larger calcium?

Unfortunately, if she is eggbound she WILL die if she doesn't see a vet. I believe that it can only take days for this to happen as birds are VERY fragile.
I know it's not what you want to hear, but you need to take her to the vet. As a pet owner it's your responsibility, if you can't do it then you need to surrender her to someone who can and will.
Good luck, I hope she does well.

Yes, its a possibility. And whether you want to hear it or not, if she is possibily egg bound and you dont bring her to see a vet immediately, she will die.

Provide calcium now. There are drops that can be added to water. A warmer room might help too.
