Chicken bleeding butt

If you can, she should probably go to a vet. If not, I recommend looking up more on how to treat it.

Ok thank you

Ok I've washed the area and put on cream she's struggling to poo. Is there anything else I can do

Oh, and vitamins and electrolytes will help the muscles.

Ok thank you

You are welcome. I wish you and your hen good luck, keep us posted on how she's doing.

It looked swollen to me.

@Sbuttress how old is she? Is she on layer feed and/or does she have oyster shell on the side to eat if she chooses to? You said she is acting normally and eating /drinking? How does her crop feel?

Here is a good article on hoe to treat prolapse. post another pic after you have cleaned it. Give her calcium through oyster shells or any other way you feed calcium. https://the-chicken-chick.com/prolapse-vent-causes-treatment-graphic/

Hi her crop is big she is 20 months old she eats layer pellets and at the moment protein scratch as they are molting but I cant see what the vent it's self looks like as she won't let me look properly

Hmmm, big crop? Maybe egg binding? Tell us, is her crop hard, squishy, can you feel if there is an egg in there maybe.

It's definitely not hard but she's still eating but every minute she stops tries to poo , can't and then continue to walk around
