chicken's vents are bleeding

[StinkyAcres]

MY COOP IS VERY LARGE AND TALL I HAVE NOTHING THAT COULD KEEP THEM SEPERATE

I'm sorry, I'm just trying to help. I recommend going out and buying a large dog crate or two. Since your coop is large you should have no problem fitting it in there. I think it's a good investment as it's always good to have a place where you can separate bullies, sick birds, and new chicks.

Ok, we are just trying to help, no need to get sassy. You have shot down everyone's suggestions so far. If you don't, somehow, seperate the chickens that are bleeding from the ones that aren't, you will find it very difficult to solve this problem. Think outside the box. Even if you had cardboard or something, that could be used to seperate them. Or you could even take them inside and put them in a small room. I recommend asking people you know if they have a dog crate or two that you could use

sorry that my caps were on I wasn't being sassy at all. thank you for everyone's input and information. I do have one more question so all the ones that are bleeding staying together seperate from the ones who aren't won't the ones that are bleeding still peck each other ?

It is possible, but if you clean them off and find the source of the bleeding and stop it they'll be less likely to peck at each other. I would just separate them from the healthy ones in case one or all of them are the culprit. If you can separate each one of them it would be ideal, but obviously that will be difficult and expensive. This is a very unusual situation!

I gotcha. All good.

I agree with @StinkyAcres about the chickens

BluKote contains alcohol (disinfectant) and gentian violet (the deep blue color that hides wounds and is antifungal.) Many things nowadays are found to be toxic or cause cancer in excessive amounts. Believe it or not we used gentian violet inside the mouths and throats of babies back in the 70’s and 80’s to treat thrush/yeast/candida fungus before Nystatin came along and was widely used. Shock-shock, it cured it and nobody got hurt. Even Betadine and Neosporin ointment can be toxic if enough is used, so people need to relax a bit.

Gentian Violet is the best thing to use for a dog's nasty ear infection as well. Difficult to find - has to be acquired from a compounding pharmacy down here.
