Bright Red skin on butt area towards wings for 1 year.

Sorry to hear about your hen.

Hello and welcome to BYC!

Could she be plucking her feathers? Skin will turn red without feathers to cover it. A photo would really help us. I had a similar issue with a hen where her flanks had no feathers and skin was all red. I tried all the remedies you did as well to no avail. I fashioned a cover like saddle over her flanks and sides and eventually it cleared up. I can only assume she was chewing feathers or plucking them out.

Definitely post in our Emergency forum for more help.

What percent protein is her feed?
Does she sleep up on a roost?
Could there be a bully plucking her feathers?

Hello, and welcome to BYC. It is very likely that she is being feather pecked/plucked by a flock mate.

Good news. I gave all B12 liquid, exact name is not coming to me, and she is getting feathers back and redness is gone!! Yes, she does have poop on her butt, actually 2 girls. I am trying ivermection topical again. Any more suggestions for the poop butt's on 2 out of 15??
