Wait. Eclectus are notorious for high white count. BE SURE your vet knows this before you start antibiotics. If your vet is not familiar with Eclectus, please ask that they research this. It can seem really, really high to a vet not familiar with this oddity. Let me check our last blood work. (getting paperwork...) Okay, "normal" is supposed to be between 10-14 and last time my male's was 25. They did gram stain and all was well, as I expected. Something about the vet visit can trigger the high count.

Let her sit the full 28 days if she wants. She may break and or eat the egg before that. Otherwise, remove the egg after about a month. She won't starve herself. Just offer her normal food/water.

I'm so glad all is well!
