We got some of the medicated poultry spray and some preparation h and kept her separated for about 3 days. Once it looked like the swelling was down and she could lay down again, we cleaned her up and put her back with everyone else.
It doesn't look as inflamed as the pictures I've seen of a prolapsed vent, but it is sticking out pretty far, so I'm guessing that is what it is. She is still pooping, so I'm assuming she's eating but I haven't seen her eat. She spends a lot more time under the brooder than the rest of them...
New chicken mom. Is this just pasty butt? I'm hoping it isn't a prolapsed vent. She is pooping but she gets all wet and is dirty again within 10 minutes of me cleaning her up.
