    (GRAPHIC IMAGE) Help Needed, Family Member's Chicken Had Severe Vent Prolapse

    Hi guys, we need some pretty urgent help regarding a chicken, the local vet wasn't much help as they basically said that the vent needs to go back inside or the chicken put down, but we're really struggling to get it back in. We think the large intestine has also come out of her as we can see...

    Strange yellow mass below vent of Buff Orpington

    Hello. This morning my family found our 4-year-old (estimate) Buff Orpington had a huge yellow mass below her vent. She had tons of maggots feeding off of the wound, which is obviously infected. She surprisingly wasn't very affected by this mass. She is breathing heavily and is pretty tired...
