Pippa sounds like she has a very upset stomach! If the egg was filled with candy, she could become very ill, especially if there was a large amount of chocolate in the egg. If this was a boiled egg, she should be fine if she has a strong stomach normally. If she has a very sensitive stomach, any new food treat or new food item could give her severe vomiting and/or diarrhea. If she starts to have vomiting or diarrhea that doesn't resolve quickly, or if she is very lethargic and depressed, you need to take her to the vet for supportive care right away.
