My 4.5 month old EE had a very rough time this morning laying her first egg. It was sticking out of her duct, with bloody membrane kind of holding it half in/half out, and she walked around like that for a good hour before I could catch her (she is difficult and does not like to be held). I soaked her bum in warm water and she released the egg, but her vent still seems to be sticking out and red. Is this normal for a first egg? None of my other chickens have had any problems. Will the vent go back on its own or so I need to treat for prolapse?
