This glance scared Lu Chen so much that he could not care less about anything else. He directly pounced to the side of the lady Kakapo's nest, knelt on the ground, and carefully picked it up.
Fortunately, the moment he touched its elastic body, Lu Chen knew that it was not dead.
However, it was true that he was unconscious.
Lu Chen stuck his head out to look at the nest and saw that the small grass nest was empty.
……？
Lu Chen frowned slightly.
Logically speaking, if the first egg was laid yesterday afternoon, it should have been finished by now.
How could there not be a single one?
Could it be…
At that moment, Lu Chen suddenly reached out his hand to the lady Kakapo's belly that was covered in fluffy fur.
As expected, it was hard to the touch from the area near the colonic foramen.
When he pulled open the feathers near its little skin, he saw that its stomach near the vulva was slightly purple.
Lu Chen instantly understood.
F * ck, this was a stuck egg!
When everyone saw the lady Kakapo lying there unconscious, they were anxious and asked,"
Brother Lu, what happened to the Kakapo?
Why is he not moving at all? Is he dead…
Don't scare me! She was clearly fine last night!
"Everyone, don't worry. It's not dead."
After Lu Chen finished speaking, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. However, his next sentence made everyone's hearts skip a beat.
"But if we don't solve this problem quickly, it's very likely to die suddenly.”
As he spoke, Lu Chen put down the already limp lady Kakapo and quickly returned to the tent.
Lu Chen took out a bottle of pale yellow liquid and a pack of disinfectant cotton swabs from his backpack. He carried the small folding table and rushed back.
Brother Lu, what happened to Lady Kakapo?
Why was he suddenly in danger of dying suddenly?
"This kind of situation is actually quite common. If you have birds in pairs at home, you should know.”
Lu Chen opened the small table and placed the lady Kakapo on it. As he tried his best to gently pluck the fur near its genitals, he said,
"This kind of situation is called a stuck egg.
It meant that the diameter of the egg produced in its stomach was larger than the largest size that its colonic foramen could open on its own, and it was stuck there.
It could also be due to some reasons that their physical strength was not enough to lay eggs, leading to this situation.”
Lu Qingqing from the Bird Research Institute said," There's another reason why this Kakapo is stuck in its eggs.
Kakapo eggs were perfectly round and had a smooth surface.
And the burrows of birds were also very smooth.
Birds weren't like humans when they laid eggs. They could control their own strength and give birth in one go. They often tried repeatedly.
However, due to the special characteristics of the Kakapo egg, it was perfectly round and smooth. If it could not be laid at once, it would repeatedly jump around the colonic foramen. This situation would also occur in artificially bred Kakapo.
Generally speaking, if a female parrot was stuck in an egg, the male would jump onto the female's body to help squeeze and force the egg to come out.
Therefore, even if the Kakapo was stuck in an egg, most of them would still be able to successfully give birth.
But you…
Hearing Lu Qingqing and Lu Chen's words, many people in the live broadcast room understood.
My family's Wen bird had its eggs stuck before! At that time, he didn't understand and suffocated the mother bird to death. Sob…
Mine is the same, but I discovered it early. I used the blunt side of the needle to poke the egg and pulled it out!
Then, Brother Lu, can you also help the lady Kakapo break the egg stuck in her stomach and let it out?
"No."
Lu Chen shook his head and gently massaged the area near the female Kakapo's genitals with a solemn expression. He said,
"The eggshells of the small ornamental birds that everyone keeps at home are usually very thin. They can be easily crushed with a gentle pinch.
Even if the eggshell broke near the female's genitals, it would not cause much damage.
But not the Kakapo."
Lu Chen gently massaged it, feeling the subtle changes in the degree of muscle contraction under his fingers. He picked up the bottle of pale yellow liquid that he had just taken out, poured some on his fingers, and continued to massage the colonic foramen.
"I ate a Kakapo egg yesterday. Their shells are very strong. If they break inside their bodies, the sharp edges will definitely scratch their genitals and cause bleeding.
Birds shared this defecation hole for laying eggs and defecation. If they were contaminated by feces, they would die if they were infected.
Therefore, the only way to save it was to find a way to help it expel the egg completely.”
Then, Brother Lu, what did you pour on your hand just now?
"This? This was ordinary sesame oil, just to moisten it.”
Lu Chen maintained a certain rhythm and gently pressed on its genitals.
"Because it is in a coma now, it is impossible for it to cooperate with me, so I can only massage the muscles near its genitals to let it slowly relax and use sesame oil to moisten it.
Then, he pushed the egg out for it.”
Everyone understood.
Feeling the muscles near the female Kakapo's genitals slowly relax, Lu Chen found the position of the egg and began to gently push it out.
This pushing method was also very particular. It could not be pushed out directly in one go, or else it might bring out the soft flesh in its cloacal cavity, causing it to turn out.
The safest way was to simulate the rhythm of its strength when it laid eggs and push it out bit by bit.
Lu Chen was focused on helping Lady Kakapo push the eggs, so he naturally did not speak.
The people in the live broadcast room were worried about the safety of Lady Kakapo and remained silent.
For a moment, the livestream room, which had hundreds of thousands of people watching it online, became eerily quiet.
Lu Chen patiently helped the lady Kakapo push the egg down bit by bit. The color of the eggshell could already be seen from the slightly opened defecation hole.
He held the egg in place with one hand and picked up the small oil can with the other hand. He dripped a few drops of sesame oil on it again.
After a few simple rubs, Lu Chen saw an opportunity and exerted a little force with his thumbs.
With a soft "pop", a dark green egg with white spots rolled into Lu Chen's arms.
He quickly caught the egg. Before the lady Kakapo woke up, Lu Chen dripped a little sesame oil into its genitals.
After the stuck egg was squeezed out, the lady Kakapo slowly woke up not long after.
It didn't seem to know what had just happened. It just looked left and right, shook its wings, and returned to its nest, once again laying eggs.
"I just felt that there should be two or three eggs in its stomach, but it's okay. Now that there's oil, it should be easy to give birth.
However, just to be safe, I'd better watch it finish playing here to prevent any more accidents.
After all, no matter what, these eggs are still mine.”
The corner of Lu Chen's mouth twitched when he thought of the Kakapo lady's "dance" on his head yesterday morning.
He would probably never forget this scene for the rest of his life.
