I have a 7 week old lavender orp chick who is no doubt a roo. Whenever he goes to the bathroom his vent prolapses and then goes back in. It is obviously causing hime discomfort because he fluffs up and does what can best be described as a velociraptor call after. I have no clue if or how it can be corrected. Any ideas?
 
He is in isolation and I gave him a scrambled egg. He wasn't real happy with the egg but he did eat some. He has been eating, drinking, and acting normal. The only evidence of a problem is right after he goes to the bathroom.
 
If you can keep him on "soft" foods for a couple of days, this should take care of itself.
