    Swollen vent, possible prolapse

    We just got six pollutes last week, and one of them has recently been having problems with her vent. I thought it was pasty butt at first, so I very carefully cleaned her up and made sure to check up on her. Her vent is now swollen and she's having trouble pooping. She squats and holds her wings...
