    Chicken messy butt

    My hen has been molting and stopped laying about two months ago when it started getting cold, still molting 2 months later. Her butt is filthy, she keeps flexing her vent constantly, but not like she's trying to lay. She has red bumps on the top of her vent but no discharge and doesn't smell...

    poultry dust in vent

    Will it hurt to get poultry dush in the inside of the vent, first 1/2'' or so? I feel like I have to dust her vent directly to deal with bugs around it, but worried it will get inside of her.

    Chicken losing feathers

    When I picked her up to take these pictures, she started dripping white foam out of her mouth. It is 90 something degrees outside, and she just got done chugging water, that might be why. I see no sores on her body. She was born the week before Easter.

    just watched my hen poop, and look what I saw
