iSOLATE HER AND THEN PUT SOME prep H

IN THE VENT AND TRY PUSHING THE VENT AREA BACK IN




DO THis now use bag balm TWICE TONIGHT AND HOLD YOU HAND OVER THE VENT TO HOLD THE PROLAPSE IN




THE PREP H WILL SHRINK THE PROLAPSE ONLY USE PREP H ONCE

THE USE OF BAG BALM is for saftey of the reproduction system of the hen, as too much prep H will sterilize the hen.




NOW KEEP HER WARM AND IN DARK PLACE SUCH AS A BOX WITH TOWEL IN IT

IF YOU HAVE A HEATING PAD PUT IT UNDER THE TOP LAYER OF THE TOWEL AND ON MIDIUM HEAT

THIS WILL KEEP HER HAPPY AND HEALING




DO the bag balm for a week AND ONLY FEED HER A SLICE OF BREAD AND MILK THREE TIMES A DAY

THIS WILL HELP HER GUT FLORA ALSO




in the water put 1 pint of water with 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar




THIS HAPPENED TO MY DAUGHTERS HEN (4-2016 and she did not use the Prep H but only used bag balm and kept pushing the vent in each time it was out and after a week in a small cage so the hen did not exercise too much, the hens tissues stayed in and she put her back (at night on roost) after almost two weeks alone. She has been laying all yr now without any more problems

FROM MYPET CHICKEN Vent prolapse overview

A: Vent Prolapse Also called

Blowout




Prevalence-

Common in some breeds and crosses, especially those prone to fatness (such as meat breeds)




Signs

General signs -

The same signs associated with pain: lack of appetite, lethargy, huddling with fluffed up feathers.

Cardinal or diagnostic signs -

Parts of the internal reproductive tract protrude from the vent; if the bird has been cannibalized by flock mates, the vent may also be bloody or torn.




Cause/s -

It’s natural for the reproductive tract to slightly evert during laying, but if it doesn’t retract back into the vent, the problem is called prolapse. Vent prolapse is an issue that can happen to any hen in your flock, especially young hens who’ve just begun laying and have passed an egg too large for their age/size, or older hens who’ve lost smooth muscle tone. It can happen in hens with nutritional deficiencies, particularly calcium or magnesium, as those nutrients affect smooth muscle function. It happens most often to breeds prone to obesity, hens without enough space to properly exercise and forage, and hens exposed to excessive light year round (particularly in commercial situations where factory farms want to stimulate early laying).




Communicability -

Vent prolapse itself is not contagious, but the underlying issues causing the prolapse (obesity, photostimulation, etc.) can be. In addition, a flock prone to cannibalization of the vent may be prone to other types of cannibalization, like feather

IN MY OPINIO DO NOT put the hen in any warm water as this only DISTURBS TH HEALNG PROCESS
Just use the bag balm 3 times a day and the vent will stay in andheal okay
