Under quadratic loss, the Bayes estimator under squared error loss of the latent mean $\lambda$ is its posterior mean. For the Poisson-uniform posterior mean, the prior distribution has density $1/2$ on $(1,3)$ and the one-count Poisson distribution likelihood is $\lambda e^{-\lambda }$. Consequently the Bayesian posterior density is proportional to $\lambda e^{-\lambda }$ on that interval, with normalizing integral ${\int }_1^3\lambda e^{-\lambda }d\lambda$.

By conditional independence, $\mathbb{E}(X_2\mid \lambda ,X_1)=\lambda$, so the law of total expectation makes the posterior predictive expected value equal to this same posterior mean. It isThe required antiderivatives are $-(\lambda +1)e^{-\lambda }$ and $-({\lambda }^2+2\lambda +2)e^{-\lambda }$. Evaluating at the two endpoints givesThis estimate differs from $13/7$: the Bühlmann credibility estimate is an optimal affine rule, while the Bayes estimator under squared error loss optimizes over all rules and uses the truncated uniform prior through its exact Bayesian posterior.
