Green Nostrils / weirdly shaped hen

[servant_of_fluffs]

One of my 5 year old Orpingtons has always had raspy (Darth Vader) breathing and I've always figured she had a deformity. I'll post a picture of her, but she's not a normal chicken...shape. Like no neck, all fluff, no tail feathers. Her two sisters from the same hatchery look normal but she has always looked like she's half broiler, honestly. She hasn't been laying for a while, at least since august 2025. She doesn't breathe with her mouth open. None of the other chickens breathe raspily like her. But yesterday I noticed she has green discharge from her nostrils. She behaves the same as she did before the green discharge. I'm thinking it could be chronic respiratory disease? Can other chickens get it from her? Is there anything I can do to minimize the symptoms?

There are 2 roosters and 16 hens in the same coop as her. We did just have a cold spell (-20 F) with high wind speed, so maybe she got chilled. I'll post pictures of her nostrils as soon as my phone is done charging.

Thank you so much if you reply to this!

She may be deformed somehow, can you post pictures ?

I found some blood on vent area and am going to bring her inside to monitor her.

Looks she's gor dirt in her nose. Her beak is a bit overgrown, a brick or rock in the coop can help them file it.

Blood from someone pecking her or blood coming from her vent? What does her poop look like?

Chickens are attracted to blood so it's good you've separated her so she doesn't get picked on.

I don't see green goo in her nare from the picture. You could take a wet Q-tip and gently clean her nose and no, they don't like it. See what the matter looks like, soft, dry, etc. Could be it's just debris. If not, we'll need to solicit help from some experts for further advice.

Let us know how she is eating, drinking and pooping after some observation.

The blood came from some feather shafts. I don’t know if they were pecked out or not. Her poop has in the past been very watery and smelly (compared to other normal chicken poo) The nose matter is very dry and almost moldy looking. Her nostrils are too small to clean them out with a q-tip, unfortunately. She eats fine. She has drank so much water that she “puked” it up before.

She also has bumble foot Literally whyyyyyyy

Here’s some weird looking poo.

Yellow poo can sometimes be a sign of ascites or water belly. There is no cure for this. It is caused from liver disease common in reproductive infections, cancer or fatty liver disease. Her labored breathing can also be a sign of ascites. Does she have a large belly that feels like a water balloon? I've never dealt with water belly but I've read where you can drain it using an 18 gauge needle inserted into the abdominal wall. There is always a risk of infection or death when draining so if this is something you think is necessary, we will need to solicit help from experts, which I will do here:

Green poo is a sign of undernourishment.

If they drink excessive amounts of water at one time, it is not uncommon for them to throw some back up. What color is that and does it occur every time she drinks?

Have you felt her crop and what does that feel like?

Pictures of her bumblefoot might help. There are many threads here on how to treat bumblefoot and also in the Articles tab, Learning Center which includes instructions on how to wrap the foot.
You would soak her foot in tepid water with epsom salts for about 10-15 minutes, apply Prid, apply a non stick gauze pad and wrap with vet wrap, being careful not to cut off her circulation, so not too tight. You would repeat this process until it is healed, it can take several days to weeks depending on the severity of the bumble.
