    Sick hen

    One of my hens had a bit of eggshell in her vent. It is red and swollen. She also has a bump to the right of her vent. Stuck egg? We are not sure and have no idea what to do. We washed her off and she seemed to feel a little better, and the hemorrhoid, or swelling seemed to be better. Help
