My 7 year old just came in the house covered in blood. She said Buttons had laid an egg without a shell. She then said she said she saw something hanging out of her vent and it was covered with blood she also said she pulled some shell out of her vent and that is how she got covered in blood.
I immediately went out to look. Buttons had expelled the egg but not the currently soft shell (she last had an egg this morning is an very regular) . I saw the corner of the shell sticking out of he vent and with the help of my seven year old we were able to pull out what appears to be the the entire soft shell (HUGE egg).
What concerned me is a lot of the vent was now outside of her and bleeding (looked like a monkey butt). We washed her in cold water and the inners pulled back in and the vent closed. I couldn't tell if the bleeding stopped .
In the morning we are going to wash her again and build a hospital coop. It this fatal ? I cant imaging it not getting infected with the anus in the same place. Also I dont know why she was bleeding was it from trying to push out the shell ? (hemoroid ?)
Advice appreciated
