prolapse vent

Hi everyone I have a bit of emergency and could use some advice ! I have a nearly 4 year old Cochin chicken with what appears to be a prolapse vent from laying an egg that was to large (look at picture below for egg) for her. Note this is her first egg after going through a molt Two days ago...

Petunia has a big red thing coming out of her cloaca. What is it, what can I do? She's been laying big eggs, almost the size of my hand recently, they are double yokers, does this have anything to do with this?

This is Alligator Bob. He is brave, smart, handsome, a doer of valorous deeds and much more interesting than Boo, the World’s Cutest Dog. At any rate, poor Bobbie has had a relatively slight penis prolapse for about a month. For a while, I was just keeping an eye on it, applying hydrocortisone...

I discovered one of my chickens had a large obtrusion coming out of her vent. Based on the research I have done it appears it could be a prolapsed vent, however, none of the photos I have seen shows it to this degree so I am unsure. She was fine yesterday, and had nothing protruding. There is...

I went out to see my chickens and my 2 year old wyandotte had laid an egg in the middle of her dust bath area. (not normal) She was standing a few feet away with a little bit of poop under her butt, clearly straining to poop more. When she did, something bright red came out with the poop...

Hello, one of my chicken seems to have a prolapse, when she defecates a very large ball comes out of her vent that later goes back inside but what looks like hemorrhoids remains outside, she also has diarrhea and is having a hard time defecating, she is 4 days without laying eggs. It's a week...

Type of bird: Serama chicken (with silkied feathers), very small around 12oz weight, 1+ year old. Behavior: Picking with beak at vent area and beak has occasionally been bloody. Otherwise she's been pretty normal until today she seemed just a tiny bit more lethargic than average but still...

My pet hen had a prolapse two weeks ago. The prolapse went away a week ago so I let her back in. Now it's back and bigger. I don't have any ointment right now. I ordered some preparation H from Walmart which should be here this afternoon. I have her in a crate and soaked her in Epsom salt water...

I have an 18 month old Orpington that started laying in February of this year. On Sunday I noticed poop stuck under her vent, decided I'd give her a bath on Monday. Caught her, brought her inside, and when I was cleaning her up found she has a prolapse. I cleaned everything gently and as best as...

Hello. I’ve had a hen with prolapse for about a week now. She’s in a quarantine cage in a low light basement and I’ve restricted her access to feed to discourage laying. I apply sugar on her prolapse every day to help shrink it as well as cortisone-10. I started giving her epsom salt baths...

Hi! I have a baby Silkie about 1 week old with a prolapse vent and some of it is protruding out a lot. We're not sure if there is a tear as well since the chick is so small, it's hard to see what's going on and this is our first time encountering this. Been looking online and reading advice on...

I just got this duckling today and at first I thought it had pasty butt bit it looks more like a prolapsed vent.

I have a year old bantam hen with a vent prolapse. We found her just a few minutes ago and we’re not sure how long it has been. We tried to clean as much of the stool off as possible and manually revert it with a lubricated finger, but it’s still popping out and I’m concerned that she may have...

Hi there everyone, My hen who is about a year old has suddenly gotten a prolapsed vent, I'm not sure what caused it but I'm really stressed out about it. I separated her from my other hens because they started pecking at her bloody vent that was hanging out and I didn't want them to pull her...

I have a leghorn with prolapse. cleaned it up and pushed it back with some ky. isolated in small coop with feed, water, and ground shells. did I miss anything? been raising chickens for 2 years and this is my first problem.

2 weeks ago I notice one of my jenny's (1 year old) had a mass sticking out of her vent. I separated her from the others and started to treat here for prolapse vent. I did notice that she would strain very hard and the would pop right back out every time that I pushed it in. Finally, I just...

I have a 5 month old Buff Orpington who prolapsed 3 days ago. We were able to reinsert the prolapsed and it stays until she poops. We withheld food for 24 hour to try and help this. She went about 5 hours without prolapsing but then she pooped and it happened all over again. I’m concerned that...

Hello, for about 2 weeks now my chicken has had a prolapse chicken vent. She’s only about a year old and i suspect got the prolapse from laying really big eggs. At the start I would wash her in warm water and hold her there for 20 minutes and then push it back in but it would almost immediately...

How common is prolapsed vent in chickens? My flock consists of 2 hens approx 8 months old, 2 cockerels and 4 pullets all approx 4 months old. In June 2020, my hens began to lay. Betty was inconsistent but Chikira was my champion layer. She laid consistently same place same time everyday. Last...

My chicken, Labird, was showing signs of her being egg bound 2 days ago. At 4 years old and a consistent layer of large thin shelled eggs it brought no surprise. She was puffed up, sick looking, and her vent seemed to be working hard to push out an egg. I brought her into the garage with some...
