Guinea Hen with diarrhea and soiled vent

Looks like Albumen leaking. She may have had a membrane break inside of her.

She may be having a hard time expelling material like Lash or just some soft shelled membrane, hard to know.

Guinea Fowl can suffer from similar reproductive disorders that Chicken Hens can have. So she may have Salpingitis, EYP, Cancer, etc.

What I normally suggest for Chickens with similar symptoms is to give a crisis dosage of Extra Calcium for 3-5days to see if they expel any material. You can find Calcium Citrate+D3 at stores like Walmart, CVS, etc. Give 1 tablet (300mg) once daily.

See that she's drinking well and eating. When you handled her did you note an external parasites (lice/mites)?
She's eating quite a bit, and I assume she's drinking too. I have put some Durvets Oregano/herb powder in and rotate with probiotics, and have given a separate bowl with some ACV too. Not sure how I could get her to eat the calcium, as she won't let me give her anything by mouth. I could sprinkle it on her food I guess.
I checked the water after the baths, and didn't notice any worms, mites, etc. I also have been giving some minced garlic with their food in case mites are an issue. We do have rabbits and squirrels running through the coup every day, but I can't prevent that.
Thanks for the help.
