    Can anyone help me figure out what's going on with my gal?

    Can anyone help me figure out what's going on with my gal's butt? I soaked her. Her parts don't look red, and there was no abnormal discharge. However, her butt is a hot mess. I am not sure what direction to go in. I thought maybe Gleet, but not sure.

    Is it?

    We recently bought hens from someone online. After they were delivered to a friends house, I drove to pick them up (3.5 hrs) Long story short they look to have vent gleet and 3 out of 5 have bumble foot. Do you agree? When talking to the previous owner she said they looked fine to her and would...

    Watery diarrhea but no parasites; stinks bad

    The ill chicken is an approximately 7 month old Buff Orpington hen. Her and the rest of the flock mates poop has been tested for parasites by the vet. No worms, protozoans etc. The vet did find traces of unbudding candida. That made sense since I initially thought she had vent fleet and treated...

    White liquid leaking from vent? Help with treatment. TY

    This is Lemonade, she is nearly 1.5 years old. I went out this evening to check on everyone and noticed she looked uncomfortable. I picked her up and found what appeared to be a prolapsed vent and some white diarrhea. SEE PICTURES, her vent was out more than it is in the pictures. I brought her...

    Gleet?

    Hi everyone. I have a year old hen that I think has gleet. She has always been one to have a “poopy butt” despite having good solid stools and occasionally needs a butt bath. A couple weeks ago I noted she looked dirtier than usual so bathed her. Two days later she looked just as bad. I didn’t...

    Vent gleet, and a flock prone to issues/diseases

    Hi, so I have a small flock on my back garden who just seem to always get sick I’ve had them coming up a year, and we’ve already spent a couple of hundred pounds on vet bills. They’ve had parasites, they now have vent gleet, and they’ve seen the vets twice already now. First it was new chickens...

    Swollen vent on duck: not egg bound? Please help

    My laying rescue pekin has a pretty swollen, irritated vent and I haven’t been able to find help anywhere else. She is still laying and acting relatively normal although she’s getting a little bit slower now that we are on day 3 and it isn’t looking any better. I don’t see any discharge & it...

    Suspected Sour Crop / Gleet

    Hi fellow backyard chicken friends, This site has been a wealth of knowledge for me as we tend to our very small flock of backyard chickens, so I thank you. I am here once again to seek your wisdom. A few days ago, we noticed our 3 year old RIR/White Rock cross wasn't coming out of her coop...

    Experience with implants to stop egg laying - Life threatening

    Hi all I'm a new member here and could really use some help. One of my Khaki Campbell girls had gotten Vent Gleet somehow and was having egg binding issues. I brought her inside and kept her in a large dog kennel covered so she had no light to get her to stop laying and treated her with Monistat...

    Is it gleet or another tushy trouble?

    My year old black broiler from Ideal Poultry has a not-so-fluffy butt. It does not stink, per se. It smells like a chicken butt. Not a foul chicken butt. She is on purina layer feed (and greens, bugs, sometimes a nibble at dog kibble). It has been in the 90s as far as weather. She is my...

    Are my chickens dying from "Gleet"?

    Yellow-ish white stuff is oozing from the chicken's vent. We have a mixed flock of laying hens, four of which are Americanas. One of those Americanas had this stuff oozing from her vent - we looked it up, deduced it must be gleet, which we understand to be a yeast infection, but didn't catch it...

    Continuous Vent Gleet

    Hi all! Earlier this year we lost our Black Australorp to a very bad case of vent gleet and starvation (she stopped eating). Since then the 3 remaining hens have all come down with vent gleet about once a month or every 6 weeks. We bathe them, treat with an athletes foot cream, clean the coop...
