    PLEASE HELP! Disease or injury in anal area. Looks significant. See pics

    It as definitely a prolapsed vent. We cleaned it. It was quite inflamed. It looked like the intestines were starting to come out too. I put it back in as best as I could after I cleaned it. I used Neosporin on my hands to apply moisture. We separated her. Today it looked better but still...

    Thank you. I really do. I'm a trainer for Tony Robbins and in the middle of an event at the moment, so my husband's been primarily dealing with them. After reading responses about the others pecking her intestines out 😱, and reading about prolapsed vents, I googled it and was horrified. I...

    PLEASE HELP! Disease or injury in anal area. Looks significant. See pics

    The others weren't bothering her in the day so my husband didn't think of separating her. After reading about it, I went out and checked on her. It was extended. And the chicken next to her was pecking at her. Unfortunately, someone said neosporin, so I used that. We brought her in, washed it...

    PLEASE HELP! Disease or injury in anal area. Looks significant. See pics

    After cleaning her up, my husband had a hard time getting a pic. See attached. His gloved finger is in the close up. The first 2 pics are after she was cleaned up. The 2nd two are the original ones. The best way to describe it is it looks like a hemorrhoid. It had feces hanging all around...

    PLEASE HELP! Disease or injury in anal area. Looks significant. See pics

    Hoping someone here can help. My husband brought this to my attention. One of 4 chickens (they have tons of room and are not crowded, has swelling and build up in her anal or vent area. Hard to tell. She wouldn't let me close on my own. Hubby will help tonight. Meanwhile here are some pics...

    Urgent Need

    She can't see. She was doing good with finding her food and water. But today she seemed to go backwards. She was eating but not drinking. Even when I brought water to her mouth. She won't take the celery juice which she had loved before. She's been pooping plenty. She's begun shivering...

    Urgent Need

    UPDATE: Her bad eye was closed again last night and she became lethargic. I wrapped her and got some neosporin on her eyes again. When i moved her comb it seems there maybe a wound under there. I rubbed some neosporin in the area and any other spots that look questionable. Last night...

    Urgent Need

    First of all, thank you everyone for your support and advise. I've never had chickens before. Raising them from chicks, I became a momma hen. I'm know there probably are a lot of eye rolls going on out there. No judgement. I would have been one of them at one time. I thank God they all...

    Urgent Need

    Much has changed since I first wrote. Since she can't see, I've had to bring the food to her beak. I made a berry mash yesterday and she ate quite a bit but wouldn't eat regular food. (she's still inside in a make shift pen). She doesn't seem to drink water. She knocks it over more than...
