#prolapse

Hey there! My chickens have been laying eggs for the past 4ish weeks now (🎉) and with me being a new chicken mom, I want what’s best for them and I’d never turn down advice🙅🏼‍♀️For the past week, one of my Barred Rocks has been laying a double yolks. It’s been a one week since she has started...

So I’m pretty sure my chick has a prolapsed vent, she’s about 4 days old and I’ve tried to massage this little bit in, it’s the only part outside and she’s still acting perfectly fine I’m just asking if this might fix itself? Or how to help it back in?

Hi everyone, I recently received chicks from Cackle on Friday. I know shipping causes great stress on the chicks so there has been some issues that have me worried about them every second of the day. Anways, we have had a bad case of pasty butt with this bunch and I have been cleaning it with...

A few days ago I posted about my hen who had a prolapse vent. Mrs duck had a bad prolapse that I healed enough to put her back in with the others the week before. Well a week later, it happened again but worse. There was an egg stuck. I spent 4 hours trying to help her get the egg out. Baths...

Hi, I have a 2yr old chicken that lays fairly large eggs. She’s been quite healthy until yesterday. She has a prolapsed vent. I immediately brought her inside and washed her back end. When I tried to slowly push the prolapse back in she strained a little and pooped and laid a shell-less egg...

My lokkha hen pigeon ( this breed is more like chicken than pigeons ) has a prolapse. A vet suggested putting the prolapse inside and stitching. Anyone has their chicken/bird going through this procedure ? Does it work ?

Hi, I am speaking on behalf of a friend who needs help. She has a 6 month old silkie with a vent prolapse. We were able to get the egg out of the membrane but we can’t seem to put the intestines back inside of her. We have put her in a warm epsom salt bath and put lubricator on it to help but...

Aloha Friends. I just adopted 14 hens and one of them has a poopy butt. I thought she may be egg bound. she's fluffy and since she's new I am not sure if she always looks this way or what... Today I also noticed some blood too. They just finished molting and they are not yet laying full time...

Please help. Ive been tending to my hens prolapse and have reached a standstill. The problem is that her vent is so soiled with hard crusted on poop and I can not remove it. I've tried warm baths, olive oil... I can not put the vent back in until it is clean. Any ideas on what to do next. She is...
