    Prolapsed vent help.

    I am looking for strategies for when the reinserted vent tissue does not stay. We have a 2 1/2 year old red star who very unexpectedly experienced a severe vent prolapse. We are very concerned, but want to avoid surgery.

    6 week old hen with prolapsed uterus.

    I had a 6 week old barred rock hen with what seems to be a prolapse uterus (she was pooping fine). We had put it back in but it came out again after trying to poop. She was in so much pain so my parents thought it was in her best interest if we put her out of her misery. Has anyone else had this...

    Should I put her down tonight?

She was hiding in the nesting box from the other hens with her neck pulled in and feathers fluffed out. Upon examination I found what I'm 99% sure to be vent prolapse. She has something sticking out...

    Chicken with prolapsed vent, need help quick!

    hello everyone, last night I️ realized my chicken was trying to lay an egg but she had a prolapsed vent!
