I had a drake mount my hen (chicken). I caught him and stopped him but she was already injured. It looks like a prolapsed vent. I put her in warm water to help her lay her egg and cleaned her up. I let her sit alone for a couple hours in a warm rubbermaid tub. I then gave her more warm water to sit in and cleaned her up again. I tried to put the parts back in but she pushed against me and I didn't want to force anything. She actually fell asleep in the bathtub with her head on my hand . Anyway, after my arm became dead from hanging over the tub, I moved her back to the rubbermaid tub.
She is pooping but it's very runny. She is tired and lethargic obviously. She has had a little water but no food. I want to give her the best chance at making it through this disaster, but I'm not sure what else to do for her.
The drake, btw, is now separated in a pen and is leaving this weekend. He has two females of his own and has never bothered the chickens before so this was a surprise.
Any advice would be great! Thanks!
