That's too bad that you end up killing him. I did some research on the Internet and I can proudly tell you, there's no killing going on here. I got some honey and inject it directly into my Cochins rear, after an hour he still had this red bubbly thing sticking out but he was able to tuck it back in, so then I injected him with some preparation h, after another hour. It was not there. He was able to tuck it back in and it looks like he's keeping it tucked in. I must add before I did anything, I gave him a bath, he enjoyed soaking his butt in the nice warm water, then I clean him off using baby shampoo. Then I dried him off and started to inject him with the honey and preparation H. Looks like his is going to be ok and I'm soooo relieved and glad because 8/15 was his birthday, he just turned 1 year old....
I did get a hold of a vet who said it is very rare and unlikely for a rooster to get prolapse. Well I strongly believe that is what my Cochin has and the treatment to treat it seems to be working.
I wouldn't believe in a million years that honey would help with the swelling but in my case it seems to be working....
Hip hip horay..
