discharge from vent?

[supermommy]

My 1 year old call has a mucusy looking disharge from her egg vent...Anyone know what this is or could be from?

I know it sounds gross, but if you could get a pic, it would be helpful. I have no idea, other than some not as typical poo. Color? Off type of smell? That might help someone else who knows more. Sorry, not much help.

is she being bred? If so, it's just discharge from the breeding process, happens a lot this time of year will all types of poultry, nothing to worry about.
If she's a lone without males, could just be off poop, watch her and see if it clears up, if not give her some broad spectrum antibiotics for a few days and maybe worm her

female ducks ooze from their vents when they are ready to mate. if your duck is flattening her back, quacking softly, and raising her tail when the stuff is oozing out then its definitely mating related.
