One of my layers has been having clots of blood in her poop. Also streaks of blood on her eggs. What should I check for or do. Can't tell which hen it is, so she is acting normal and healthy at the moment.
 
I am sorry she is giving you trouble.
What breed is she and how old is she?
Can you post pictures of the blood/poop/egg?
 
I have a hen I just discovered with a bloody anus and am very concerned. She is weak, tail drop,and flopped on the ground when trying to get over something that is 3 inches tall. I removed her from the rest of the flock.

I'm sorry you are having trouble too.
How old is your girl?

Sometimes their egg laying parts just mess up and there isn't much that can be done.

Proper diet is a ver important thing, but so is starting with healthy parents (where the egg came from)

This hen is about 6 years old; I think that she is "flyblown" and I caught it too late. However, I will wash her again tomorrow, pick them off, and treat with betadine and hope I can pull her through.
