    It was only a matter of time until they flushed an object down the toilet. Well, they flushed an Easter egg. Yes, I know... who has an Easter egg around in August? It was Spiderman and they were thoroughly enjoying putting things inside. It was being used for all sorts of games and didn't match the rest of the eggs anyway so it didn't go into the bag to be put away for next year. It was one of those jumbo-sized eggs which happen to be the same diameter around the middle as the drain pipe. I got the first half of the egg out with the plunger and it was broken in two. The second half remains lodged so tightly that not even water will work past the clog. I tried one of the toilet auger things thinking maybe I could break it by ramming but no such luck. We'll be pulling the toilet apart tonight and hopefully can get at it that way. If that weren't enough, I forgot to lock the door today after everyone left for work and a little boy pooped in the clogged potty. GROSS, GROSS, GROSS!

    I'm sorry Debi, but when I got to the end of your post, I had to laugh.
    Hopefully it won't be too tramatic getting it fixed and one day too you will laugh.

    OH NO! :bad: for the pooping in the clogged potty. I think I would just move, abandon the house. Or seal the bathroom door and never go in that room again. I don't think I'm up for taking apart toilets with poop in them. :escape:

    :faint: :bad: Oh, I am sorry!!! The problem is that the toilet pipe goes UP before it goes into the ground - that's why you can't dislodge it, can't get any leverage!!

    SO SORRY!!!

    Oh no!!! ICK! We've had plumbing issues here (no toys yet, just a house remodel that is going to break me), so much sympathy for you. Oh and my girls are still playing with a few easter eggs... I don't know where they found them, but they love them.

    OH NO!!!!!!!!!! :woah: There's no dancing around it, that just plain sucks. (hope it's ok to use that language! :blush:) I'm so sorry you're having to mess with that. All I can do is cross my fingers mine don't pull the same or worse stunt!! Hope the fixing and cleaning isn't too, too terrible, and is done quickly!!! :hug:

    Oh no, Debi! I am so sorry you have such a terrible situation on your hands. Clogged toilets are the worst, especially in a situation like that!
