Our two year ISA Brown, Maple, has come down with a prolapsed vent. I didn’t notice it yesterday, so I think it must be relatively new. She is still moving about, wanting to eat, and acting like her normal self. We have soaked her bottom in hot water, but after cleaning her up noticed some hard...
Had my first gosling hatch, 4 turned out perfect, but this was my little straggler. I had to assist to get out. I only helped so much and let him or her get themselves out which it did. But what am I looking at that's puffy and pink? Is that normal? Thanks guys!!!
Hi!
My very first prolapse with my chicken. Noticed one day after being away for 5 days, that my otherwise always healthy chicken Oopsie has a dirty bum. Grabbed her guessing she has worms but had a nasty prolapse covered in something. I thought it was poop but now im not sure.
I decided to use...
Hello, my one-year-old female duck was found prolapsed? this morning two hours ago, no idea when it occurred but most likely not more than a day ago. Since I found her she's been soaking in a bath we've been applying Prep H, removing stuck feathers from the area and just trying to get it as...
Hello everyone, I've been a long time lurker and am relatively new to backyard chickens. I've had my flock for a year and a half (8 birds, with 9 chicks I am integrating in next week if things go well).
I have a Green Queen who seems to have a prolapsed vent with a necrotic mass. My bird's...
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...
I wasn't home this past weekend so I had my mom feed my 4 pekins and lock them in their little coop at night. I got home yesterday at around noon only to behold the ghastliest sight.. I found one of my pekins with a SEVERE prolapsed vent... with her instenstine dragging on the ground.... there...
I need help :( over the last two or so days I’ve noticed my White Leghorns wings have been drooping and she keeps falling asleep in the middle of the day, and just overall doesn’t look great. I’ve been finding one egg nearly everyday that doesn’t have a hard shell… I’d say for probably the last...
I just watched my hen hump another hen so vigorously that her vent was prolapsed for the next twenty seconds. She stood there upright, dripping out liquid, before she sucked it back up again and continued on her merry way. Is this...... normal? Is a more serious prolapse possible in the future...
I’ve done epsom soaks, gently pushed it back in and it just keeps popping g back out. She’s uncomfortable and I’m feeling a bit helpless here. None of the vets around here will see chickens. Pic taken before her bath.
Yesterday something got our flock during the day. I believe if was a fox or coyote. It took one hen, and the other is slightly injured. The animal seemed to have grabbed her tail, and ripped our all of her tail feathers. In addition, her vent looks prolapsed, and I’ve only attempted to push it...
Our whelsh harlequin duck has a prolapsed vent with hard stuff hanging out of and stuck it, its oozing afoul smelling white fluid.
Since we brought her in to treat it 2 days ago, she has refused to eat during this and today she can't stand or walk, she's very alert and active though.
She has...
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...
Muscovy hen. Photo attached. Age is unknown, seems in good health aside from the protrusion. I’ve read the other threads, but hers looks different than any photos I’m finding.
I noticed one of the duck eggs had a little blood on it a few days ago but didn’t think much of it, since the...
ive brought this up a few hours ago but i have a turkey, shes only a few weeks old i cannot tell if its a prolapse or something else because ive never had a poultry with this problem, we try and clean it as much as we can the first picture is the fromt and the second one is from the side. does...
I have a 3 day blue Swedish female duckling that has a prolapse vent. I’ve tried sugar and preparation H but it keeps coming back out after awhile. Anything I can do to keep it in? All the vets around us are out for the holiday. I’ve taken her away from her siblings which she’s very upset about...
i went to check on my chicks this morning and found one with a prolapse. i gently cleaned away the waste (it was soft, so unsure if it was related) and most of her tract went back in. her vent now looks like this. is this swelling from the prolapse or should i be concerned? i don’t have a...
Why have I lost two chickens to prolapse? Theyre both year old, a lavender and an Americana , they eat healthy Harvest non gmo 17% protein and table scraps for snacks sometimes. They are not free range but have lots of room(there’s only 4 of them total, now two☹️), and I try let them out of...
So I dealt with my first prolapse a little over a week ago with my 11 month old jersey giant. I didn't think she would survive it honestly with the way she was acting but she has pulled thru amazingly well. I have her in a slightly dim room since, partially to give her recovery time and...
My baby chicken keeps getting pasty butt and it looks like her bottom prolapse. I put vaseline on it and I keep rinsing off her bottom when I see it. What else can I do?
