    Prolapse and can't poop

    I was able to get it back in last night and it's still in place this morning. How long should I keep her confined? I'm limiting her light exposure to try to keep her from producing eggs. I'm worried when I let her roam free again she'll start laying before everything is healed and ready. But I...

    Prolapse and can't poop

    She is still about the same. I'm going to try to get her to soak a bit today. I think that will help loosen up the last stubborn bit more than the wet compress. Hopefully she cooperates for at least a few minutes. She is pooping more and the skin still looks pretty good so I'm not too worried...

    Prolapse and can't poop

    She's about the same. She did poop more overnight. I cleaned her up some more. She's still pretty feisty which gives me hope.

    Prolapse and can't poop

    Unfortunately I don't really have anywhere to put her away from flies. I recently dealt with fly strike on another girl so I'm definitely checking for any movement when I clean her up. There were some little fly babies the first day but I haven't seen anymore since then.

    Prolapse and can't poop

    Oh my gosh this was so helpful! I just did the coconut oil and warm compress and was able to get a lot of the white stuff off and loosened up. It looks like her skin is pretty healthy underneath it all. She even pooped a bit while I was doing it. I'll work on it more in the morning but I'm...

    Prolapse and can't poop

    No improvement yet. Still no poop. I discovered it Wed morning. I've been doing hydrocortisone cream on it. There were some maggots when I first cleaned it but I haven't seen any since. I just dealt with fly strike on another girl recently so I'm trying to stay on top of that.

    Prolapse and can't poop

    Sorry I didn't get pictures posted earlier. Hopefully these help. The white is very hard and isn't washing away. I'm doing this on my own so it's a bit challenging to get a good angle. I tried soaking to soften it up but she resists being in the water. I'm having a hard time determining what...

    Prolapse and can't poop

    Two days ago I noticed my chicken had a prolapse. There was an egg stuck that I was able to get out and another followed a few hours later. The prolapsed tissue is in pretty bad shape with a big scabbed over area and dead looking flesh. I'm cleaning it and using vetricyn spray. My biggest...
