Hello! I was wondering if this was vent gleet or if anyone had insight as to what this could be?
I’m pretty sure she just laid her first egg. She’s walking, eating, drinking like normal. Haven’t seen her poop yet.
She’s eating layer feed and scraps.
Thank you in advance!
Just looking for advice/suggestions/insight or to see if anyone has had any similar experiences.

Symptoms: My 7-week-old Salmon Faverolles pullet has has orange, runny poop for several weeks. I dismissed it as cecal poop but now see that it is always orange and runny, and sometimes foamy as well. Smells terrible, either same or worse than cecal poop. Possible vent gleet with dirty vent...

My 4.5 year old leghorn hen has had white crusted butt, and clear liquid dripping out of her cloaca constantly. Poop used to be covered in slime but now it looks more normal. I've been treating her for vent gleet, as information about these specific symptoms seems limited. For the past 2 weeks...

I've been treating my 3 y/o BO for suspected vent gleet. She stopped laying a week ago and seems to have gone out of lay completely for now (no squatting nor nesting activity, shrunken comb, eating less feed, etc.) Today I noticed when inspecting her vent I could see a little tissue just on the...
