Duck hen prolapse

Thank you!! Not egg bound. I believe she laid her first egg 3 days ago. I don't have proof it was her, but it was in a strange place, and she's never laid before. It was also a bit oddly shaped. Thinking that may what did it. Been keeping her in the dimly lit bathroom ever since. So even though I was really counting on eggs from her, her health comes first and I hope the dark has halted laying for now.

Will check her bottom here in a bit and update!

How is she now?
 
Sorry, just seeing this now. Is the scabby thing still there?
I'll try to get updated pics today. It's about back in completely. In fact, it is. Just the very end is visible. It is still there, though. I'm just keeping the honey/vaseline packed in there and keeping her in the dim light of my bathroom. She got to go out last night. Brought her in this morning and soaked her for about 40 minutes. Then did my routine and set her up in the tub for the day.
 
She has been so good this whole time. Very proud of my girl!
